Ahilud (father of Baana)

아힐룻 (바아나의 아버지)

1 Kings 4:3 names Jehoshaphat the recorder as the son of Ahilud, and 4:12 names Baana as the son of Ahilud. The sons named in the two verses have different names, and the text does not say whether the two Ahiluds are one man or two. This collection records the two apart, and does not decide whether they are the same man.
