Of the sons of Gershom, Shebuel was the chief. Of the posterity of Gershom in the times of David, called Shubael, 1 Chronicles 24:20, the Targum makes him to be the same with Jonathan, Judges 18:30. l

l So in Hieron. Trad. Heb. in Paralipom. fol. 84. c.

Clarke's Notes on the Bible

Verse 1 Chronicles 23:16. To this verse the Targum adds, "The same Jonathan, who became a false prophet, repented in his old age; and David made him his chief treasurer."
