Jonathan (see 1Sa_13:3; 1Ch_27:32, (comp. also 1Ch_2:13) where it is probable that" nephew" should be read for "uncle"). It is to be noticed that the name of this child of the giant, of twelve fingers and twelve toes, is not mentioned. We are not compelled, therefore, to regard it as remarkable that he of the fifth verse should not be named.
