Cross References
The Key Word — בֶּן־, ben-generated
The word בֶּן (ben) means 'son' or 'male child', and it can also refer to descendants more broadly. It is a common term used throughout the Old Testament to establish familial relationships and inheritance rights. The parsing as a masculine singular construct indicates its use in a genealogical context, linking individuals in a lineage.
This word is derived from a root meaning 'to build', which suggests a connection to family and lineage, emphasizing the continuity of heritage. In genealogies, it serves to affirm the identity and role of individuals within their familial and tribal structures.
How Translations Differ — measured against the Berean Standard Biblegenerated
This study reads the verse in the Berean Standard Bible, so the BSB is the wording every comparison below is made against.
Sentence Structuregenerated
The structure of this verse is straightforward, with a series of phrases linked by the finite verb בֶּן־ (ben), meaning 'son'. Each phrase builds on the previous one, establishing a clear lineage: the son of Michael, the son of Baaseiah, the son of Malchijah.
This construction emphasizes the familial relationships in a linear fashion, typical of genealogical records, where each name signifies a direct descendant.
Septuagint Backgroundgenerated
The Septuagint translates בֶּן־ as καὶ (kai), which generally means 'and'. This choice reflects a straightforward connection between the names without adding interpretive layers, maintaining the genealogical structure.
The absence of a direct translation for the names indicates that the Greek translators focused on the relationships rather than providing additional context or commentary.

The four witnesses to this verse — Masoretic, Septuagint, Samaritan, Qumran
The Masoretic Text and the Septuagint agree on four out of the six words in this verse. The Septuagint's translation does not match the Hebrew word order, but it captures the essential lineage presented in the Masoretic Text.

4 of the 6 words are matched. This is the word-by-word correspondence, not the Septuagint's own sentence — its word order and its articles are its own.
Four traditions, not one. “On the leather” means the letters physically survive on the scroll, as against letters an editor has supplied to fill a hole in it — a restoration is a scholar’s reading, not a reading of the manuscript.

The map of this verse — what each word keeps company with
This is a map of two things, both counted rather than judged. Company kept: which words stand within three words of each of these, anywhere in the Hebrew Bible — the thicker the line, the more often the pair meet compared with chance.

In the Norman period, however, "of" was taken to represent the French de (a use well developed by the time of Chaucer), and in the Elizabethan period both senses of "of" were in common use. But after about 1600 the later force of the word became predominant, and in the earlier sense (which is now practically obsolete) it was replaced by other prepositions.
