1 Chronicles 3:14 (KJV)

What does 1 Chronicles 3:14 mean?

1 Chronicles 3:14 records two generations in the family line of the kings of Judah. Amon follows his father Manasseh in the list, and Josiah follows Amon. The verse places both men in the line descended from King David.

The repeated phrase “his son” traces the family from father to son. Following Manasseh’s name in verse 13, the list identifies Amon as Manasseh’s son and Josiah as Amon’s son.
