Quick answer

The list of David's sons continues with Ibhar, Elishua, and Elpelet. These names complete the record of his royal offspring.

Overview

This verse continues the roster of David's children born in Jerusalem. While individually obscure, these names contribute to the Chronicler's careful preservation of the Davidic household. Such genealogical precision reflects the importance of the dynasty through which God's covenant promises would be carried forward to Christ.
