The name Abishur means "my father is a wall," suggesting strength and protection, which is fitting for a member of the tribe of Judah, known for leadership and kingship. Abihail, meaning "my father is might," is a name that appears several times in the Old Testament, often associated with women of noble character.

Ahban and Molid, though not prominent figures elsewhere in the Bible, are part of this lineage, emphasizing the fulfillment of God's promises to Abraham regarding his descendants. The chronicler's inclusion of these names underscores the importance of every family within the tribe, contributing to the larger narrative of Israel's history.
