Ahio
The name "Ahio" is of Hebrew origin, meaning "brotherly" or "his brother." In the context of the genealogies in 1 Chronicles, Ahio is listed among the descendants of Benjamin, one of the twelve tribes of Israel. The mention of Ahio here serves as a reminder of the importance of family and kinship in the biblical narrative. The Hebrew culture placed a strong emphasis on familial bonds, which were seen as a reflection of the covenant relationship between God and His people. Ahio's name, meaning "brotherly," can inspire us to consider the value of brotherhood and community within the body of Christ, encouraging believers to support and love one another as members of God's family.

Shashak
The name "Shashak" is less common in the biblical text, and its exact meaning is uncertain. However, it is believed to be of Hebrew origin, possibly meaning "noble" or "fine linen." The inclusion of Shashak in the genealogy highlights the diversity and richness of the Israelite heritage. Each name in these genealogies represents a unique account and contribution to the history of God's people. In a broader sense, Shashak's presence in the text can remind us of the diverse gifts and callings within the church today. Just as each individual in the genealogy played a role in the unfolding of God's plan, so too does every believer have a unique purpose and contribution to the kingdom of God.

Jeremoth
The name "Jeremoth" is derived from the Hebrew root "yaram," meaning "he is exalted" or "he will be exalted." This name is significant as it reflects the biblical theme of God's sovereignty and the exaltation of His people. Throughout Scripture, God is portrayed as the one who lifts up the humble and exalts those who are faithful to Him. Jeremoth's name serves as a reminder of the hope and promise that God will ultimately exalt His people, both in this life and in the life to come. For believers, this is an encouragement to remain steadfast in faith, trusting that God will honor and elevate those who seek Him with a sincere heart.

(14-16) Apparently nine sons of Beriah. But (1) in 1Chronicles 8:14, the LXX. reads ? ??????? ????? instead of Ahio. With different vowels the Hebrew term would mean this. (2) All the other names in this list are connected by the conjunctive particle. It is therefore likely that this was once the case with Shashak. (3) 1Chronicles 8:14-27 give five groups of Benjamite clans--viz., the sons of Beriah, the sons of Elpaal, the sons of Shimhi, the sons of Shashak, and the sons of Jeroham, all dwelling in Jerusalem. Apparently, their eponymous heads are named in 1Chronicles 8:13-14--viz., Beriah (Elpaal? omitted by accident), Shema (the same as Shimhi; there is no h in the Heb.), Shashak, and Jeremoth (probably the same as Jeroham).

If this combination hold, the text of 1Chronicles 8:14 may be thus restored: "And Elpaal his brother, and Shashak and Jeroham." Elpaal will then be brother of Beriah (1Chronicles 8:13), and perhaps son of Elpaal (1Chronicles 8:12). Shashak and Jeremoth-Jeroham, and the six following names, are sons of Beriah. . . .
