What Does 1 Chronicles 3:22 Mean?
The line continues into later post-exilic generations. Hattush, named here, appears elsewhere among those who returned with Ezra, tying this genealogy to the living community that rebuilt its life in Jerusalem and Judah.
These distant grandchildren of kings lived in humbler days, without a throne, yet they remained the bearers of an ancient hope. Scripture honors their place in the chain. The promise to David was not measured by their circumstances but by the faithfulness of the God who had spoken it long before.
