Commentary
Gill's Exposition
Also Hosah, of the children of Merari, had sons,.... Who was a fellow porter of Obededom's at the ark, Ch1 16:38 . Simri the chief (for though he was not
the firstborn, yet his father made him the chief); the firstborn being unfit for service, either through want of an intellectual capacity, or of strength of body, or through some defect or another; according to the Syriac version, he was dead; so some understand the words, he, the father, had no firstborn remaining or living.
