In the Books of Chronicles (1 Chronicles 2:13–16), Abigail and Zeruiah are referred to as sisters to David. [3] The Masoretic Text of 2 Samuel 17:25 calls Abigail the daughter of Nahash. While it is possible that Jesse 's wife had first married been to Nahash (and Abigail was David's half-sister), scholars think that Nahash is a typographic ...
"In the Abigail story, David, the potential king, is seen as increasingly strong and virtuous, whereas in the Bathsheba story, the reigning monarch shows his flaws ever more overtly and begins to lose control of his family." [8] Levenson and Halpern suggest that Abigail may, in fact, also be the same person as Abigail, mother of Amasa. [12]

There is also a man named Nahash who is described by 2 Samuel 17:27–29 as the father of Shobi, a man who aided David against Absalom.

For 2 Corinthians 13:14, the KJV has: 12 Greet one another with an holy kiss. 13 All the saints salute you. 14 The grace of the Lord Jesus Christ, and the love of God, and the communion of the Holy Ghost, [be] with you all. Amen. In some translations, verse 13 is combined with verse 12, leaving verse 14 renumbered as verse 13. [149]
However, since this text would indicate that the father of Abigail and Zeruiah is Nahash rather than Jesse, it would appear that their mother, whose name is unmentioned, married Jesse after the death of Nahash (2 Sam. 10, 1 Sam. 11). Therefore, these women are not Jesse's daughters but half-sisters of David through Nahash's widow.
