no sons: Numbers 27:3, Numbers 27:4, Numbers 27:8

but daughters: Numbers 36:2, Numbers 36:10, Numbers 36:11

Jarha: i.e. increasing moon, [Strong's H3398], 1 Chronicles 2:35

Reciprocal: 1 Chronicles 2:31 - the children of Sheshan

Gill's Notes on the Bible

Now Sheshan had no sons, but daughters,.... And but one of that sort, whose name was Ahlai, 1 Chronicles 2:31 the plural being put here for the singular; or, if that is the name of a son, as some think, he died in his father's lifetime, and left no issue; so that there only remained daughters, and it seems but one by the next verse:

and Sheshan had a servant, an Egyptian, whose name was Jarha; one born in his house, and brought up by him, and a proselyte, such an one as Eliezer in Abraham's family.

Clarke's Notes on the Bible

Verse 34. Whose name was Jarha. — "And he gave him his liberty, and gave him Sheshan his daughter to wife." - T.
