Commentary
Gill's Exposition
Elihoreph and Ahiah, the sons of Shisha, scribes,.... Their father Shisha, the same with Sheva, was scribe only in David's time; and he being dead very probably, both his sons
were continued in the office as secretaries of state, Solomon having more business for such an office, see Sa2 20:25 ; Jehoshaphat the son of Ahilud, the recorder; who was in the same office in the times of David, and now held it under Solomon, Sa2 8:16 .
