Bocheru. — Some MSS. read “his firstborn,” with which, with different points, the LXX. and the Syriac agree. This seems right, as the conjunctive particle is wanting between Azrikam and the doubtful word, and Bocheru would be anomalous as a proper name. (See Note on 1 Chronicles 8:40.)

Azel. — A place near Jerusalem was so called (Zechariah 14:5; Micah 1:11).
