There are several of this name in Scripture: one among the sons of Jeconiah, (1 Chronicles 3:17) and another mentioned Ezra 3:2—but here it is spelt according to the Hebrew, Shealtiel, but both is the same name, and derived from the same root, Sheal, a loan. So that it should seem the father of the first Salathiel called his son by this name, as Hannah did her Samuel, because it was a loan or gift asked of God. (See 1 Samuel 1:20) —in the margin also of the Bible. We meet with another Salathiel (Matthew 1:12) and another, (Luke 3:27) though some have thought that this was one and the same person, the branches here uniting in this genealogy of Christ.
