- 2 Samuel 3:4
his fourth was Adonijah, the son of Haggith; his fifth was Shephatiah, the son of Abital;
Commentary on 2 Samuel 3:42 voices
And the fourth, Adonijah the son of Haggith,.... The same that usurped the throne before his father's death, to anticipate Solomon, and died by his order, 1Ki 1:5, and the fifth, Shephatiah the son of Abital; of whom we read nowhere else.
John Gill· Exposition of the Old Testament (1748-1763)Reformed
Adonijah - The same who, when David was dying, aspired to the crown, and was put to death by Solomon. Shephatiah - God is judge. This is the same name as Jehoshaphat, only with the two elements composing it placed in inverted order. Nothing more is known of him or of his brother Ithream.

- 1 Chronicles 3:3
the fifth was Shephatiah by Abital; and the sixth was Ithream by his wife Eglah.
Commentary on 1 Chronicles 3:31 voice
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.

- 1 Chronicles 9:8
Ibneiah son of Jeroham; Elah son of Uzzi, the son of Michri; Meshullam son of Shephatiah, the son of Reuel, the son of Ibnijah;

- 1 Chronicles 27:16
These officers were in charge of the tribes of Israel: Over the Reubenites was Eliezer son of Zichri; over the Simeonites was Shephatiah son of Maacah;
Commentary on 1 Chronicles 27:162 voices
Furthermore, over the cities of Israel,....
John Gill· Exposition of the Old Testament (1748-1763)Reformed
Over the tribes of Israel - In this enumeration there is no mention of the tribes of Asher and Gad. Probably the account of these has been lost from this register. These rulers appear to have been all honorary men, without pay, like the lords lieutenants of our counties.
Adam Clarke· Commentary on the Bible, 1832Evangelical
- 2 Chronicles 21:2
Jehoram’s brothers, the sons of Jehoshaphat, were Azariah, Jehiel, Zechariah, Azariah, Michael, and Shephatiah; these were all sons of Jehoshaphat king of Israel.
Commentary on 2 Chronicles 21:22 voices
And he had brethren, the sons of Jehoshaphat,....
John Gill· Exposition of the Old Testament (1748-1763)Reformed
And he had brethren - the sons of Jehoshaphat, king of Israel. - Jehoshaphat certainly was not king of Israel, but king of Judah. ישראל Yisrael must be a corruption in the text, for יהודה Yehudah; which is the reading of the Syriac, Arabic, Septuagint, and Vulgate: the Chaldee, only agrees with the Hebrew text. And the reading of the versions is supported by thirty-eight of Kennicotts and De Rossis MSS. The word Judah should therefore be restored to the text.
Adam Clarke· Commentary on the Bible, 1832Evangelical
- Ezra 2:57
the descendants of Shephatiah, the descendants of Hattil, the descendants of Pochereth-hazzebaim, and the descendants of Ami.

- Nehemiah 11:4
while some of the descendants of Judah and Benjamin settled in Jerusalem.) From the descendants of Judah: Athaiah son of Uzziah, the son of Zechariah, the son of Amariah, the son of Shephatiah, the son of Mahalalel, a descendant of Perez;
Commentary on Nehemiah 11:42 voices
And at Jerusalem dwelt certain of the children of Judah, and of the children of Benjamin,.... It belonging partly to one tribe and partly to the other, and so inhabited by both, as it originally was, Jos 15:63 of the children of Judah; Athaiah; called Uthai, 1Ch 9:4 whose lineage is traced through Uzziah, Zechariah, Amariah, Shephatiah, Mahalaleel: of the children of Perez; a son of Judah, see 1Ch 9:4.
John Gill· Exposition of the Old Testament (1748-1763)Reformed
See the margin reference notes. Both accounts appear to be extracts from a public official register which Nehemiah caused to be made of his census. The census itself seems to have been confined to the dwellers at Jerusalem.

- Jeremiah 38:1
Now Shephatiah son of Mattan, Gedaliah son of Pashhur, Jucal son of Shelemiah, and Pashhur son of Malchijah heard that Jeremiah had been telling all the people:
Commentary on Jeremiah 38:12 voices
Then Shephatiah the son of Mattan, and Gedaliah the son of Pashur,.... Of these two persons we nowhere else read.
John Gill· Exposition of the Old Testament (1748-1763)Reformed
Then Shephatiah - This was the faction - what Dahler terms the Antitheocratic faction - who were enemies to Jeremiah, and sought his life.
Adam Clarke· Commentary on the Bible, 1832Evangelical
- Jeremiah 38:4
Then the officials said to the king, “This man ought to die, for he is discouraging the warriors who remain in this city, as well as all the people, by speaking such words to them; this man is not seeking the well-being of these people, but their ruin.”
Commentary on Jeremiah 38:42 voices
Therefore the princes said unto the king,.... The four princes mentioned in Jer 38:1, having heard what Jeremiah said to the people, laid the case before the king, and addressed him upon it in the following manner: we beseech thee, let this man be put to death; or, "let this man now be put to death,'' as the Targum.
John Gill· Exposition of the Old Testament (1748-1763)Reformed
For thus ... - Because he makes the men of war dispirited. No doubt this was true. Jeremiah, however, did not speak as a private person, but as the representative of the government; the temporal ruler in a theocracy being responsible directly to God.
