I Chronicles 2:36

Misinterpretations often treat this genealogical entry as insignificant filler or boring lists devoid of spiritual value, overlooking its purpose in validating historical claims and covenant continuity; others might fancifully derive numerological prophecies, symbolic meanings from names without scriptural warrant, or assert unfounded modern bloodline connections, thereby distorting its role as a straightforward record of Israelite heritage.

This verse forms part of the extensive genealogy of the tribe of Judah in 1 Chronicles 2, tracing the lineage from Attai to Nathan and then to Zabad, which served to document family lines for inheritance, tribal identity, and priestly roles while affirming God's providential preservation of His people through successive generations, ultimately connecting to the messianic promise through Judah's descendants.
