The verse belongs to the fuller parallel account of the tribes assembling at Hebron to recognize David as king over all Israel in his rise to rule. That gathering included about 350,000 fighting men. It was celebrated with a three-day festival. The verse is part of the Chronicles genealogical record that preserves the names of God's people and reflects the care taken to maintain Israel's tribal records.
