1 Chronicles 2:11 says that Nahshon became the father of Salma and Salma of Boaz, and Ruth 4:20–21, Matthew 1:4–5 and Luke 3:32 name Salmon in that place, the son of Nahshon and the father of Boaz. Both editions write the name otherwise (the Korean 살마 and 살몬, WEB Salma and Salmon). The text does not say whether Salma is Salmon. This collection records the Salma of 1 Chronicles 2:11 as a name of the list 1ch-2-9-12 without linking it to the entry of Salmon the son of Nahshon (person-salmon), adds 1 Chronicles 2:11 to neither the relationship of Nahshon and Salmon nor that of Salmon and Boaz, and does not decide whether they are the same man.
