This genealogy is part of the Chronicler's effort to trace the lineage of the tribe of Judah, which is significant because it is the tribe from which King David and ultimately Jesus Christ descended. The mention of Nadab here highlights the importance of family lineage in Israelite culture, where heritage and tribal affiliation played crucial roles in identity and inheritance.<p><b>Seled and Appaim.</b><br>Seled and Appaim are the sons of Nadab, continuing the genealogical record. The listing of these names, even when little else is known about them, underscores the importance of maintaining family records. This practice was vital for the Israelites, as it ensured the preservation of tribal and familial lines, which were essential for land inheritance and fulfilling God's promises to the patriarchs.<p><b>Seled died without children.</b><br>The mention of Seled dying without children is significant in the context of Israelite culture, where having descendants was considered a blessing and a means of continuing one's legacy. This detail may also serve to explain why Appaim's line is the one that continues, as the Chronicler is concerned with tracing the lineage that leads to David.
