- 2 Samuel 3:5
and his sixth was Ithream, by David’s wife Eglah. These sons were born to David in Hebron.
Commentary on 2 Samuel 3:52 voices
Eglah David's wife--This addition has led many to think that Eglah was another name for Michal, the first and proper wife, who, though she had no family after her insolent ridicule of David (2Sa 6:23), might have had a child before.

And the sixth, Ithream, by Eglah David's wife,....

- 1 Chronicles 3:3
the fifth was Shephatiah by Abital; and the sixth was Ithream by his wife Eglah.
Commentary on 1 Chronicles 3:32 voices
By Eglah his wide - The Targum, Jarchi, and others, maintain that this was Michal, the daughter of Saul; but this does not well agree with 2Sa 6:23: Michal had no child to the day of her death. Yet she might have had a child before the time that is mentioned above.
Adam Clarke· Commentary on the Bible, 1832Evangelical
His wife - Possibly so called because she was his first, and therefore most proper wife, though her son was born after all the rest before mentioned, and therefore she and her son are put in the sixth place, the wive being here named only for the sons sake.
John Wesley· Explanatory Notes upon the Old Testament, 1765Evangelical
