1 Chronicles 3ΠΑΡΑΛΕΙΠΟΜΕΝΩΝ Α′ Γ′

Each verse opens with the running Greek, an English translation, and a discourse note (its connective, relation, and role in the argument). Below follows the word-by-word breakdown in six tiers: gloss, case (color), parsing, syntax, semantic force, and a lexical note.

Case Nominative Genitive Dative Accusative Vocative Verb (no case) Indeclinable

Discourse notes head each verse: relation · connective · clause-flow. Indentation marks prominence — flush-left = main line of argument; indented = supporting / subordinate material.

Theme

This chapter is the royal register of the book. It begins with David's sons by place of birth, first Hebron and then Jerusalem, thereby tying dynasty to David's movement into kingship and to Zion as the chosen city.

Translation & textual notes

The Greek text of 1 Chronicles 3 follows the standard critical text of the Septuagint as established in the Rahlfs–Hanhart edition (Septuaginta, rev. ed. 2006), an ancient and public-domain text; the critical apparatus is not reproduced. This chapter is the royal register of the book. It begins with David's sons by place of birth, first Hebron and then Jerusalem, thereby tying dynasty to David's movement into kingship and to Zion as the chosen city. From Solomon onward the chapter condenses the Judahite monarchy into a succession list that reaches Jeconiah, Shealtiel, Zerubbabel, and later descendants. The Chronicler's interest is theological as much as archival: exile does not nullify the Davidic line but relocates it into genealogical continuity. The Greek remains highly transliterative, and some names in Zerubbabel's line are textually difficult across traditions; the chapter should be read as a dynastic testimony rather than as a simple modern pedigree chart.

Heading: David's sons born in Hebronκαὶ οὗτοι ἦσαν υἱοὶ Δαυιδ
The chapter opens as a royal household register rather than a general tribal genealogy. Place of birth matters immediately, because Hebron marks David's first royal center.
