Then Jesse called Abinadab and told him to pass by Samuel. But Samuel said, “The Lord has not chosen this man either.”
Ben-Abinadab was governor of Naphoth Dor. (He was married to Taphath, Solomon’s daughter.)
Jesse’s first son was Eliab. His second son was Abinadab, his third was Shimea,
His three oldest sons followed Saul to the war. The first son was Eliab, the second was Abinadab, and the third was Shammah.
The men of Kiriath Jearim came and took the Ark of the Lord to Abinadab’s house on a hill. There they made Abinadab’s son Eleazar holy for the Lord so he could guard the Ark of the Lord.
