Ozem the sixth
The name "Ozem" is derived from the Hebrew root "עֹצֶם" (otsem), which can mean "strong" or "mighty." This name may reflect the character or the hoped-for qualities of the individual. Ozem is listed as the sixth son of Jesse, David's father. The mention of Ozem, though brief, situates him within the genealogy of the tribe of Judah, emphasizing the importance of family lineage in the biblical narrative. This highlights the value placed on heritage and the fulfillment of God's promises through specific family lines, a theme prevalent throughout the Old Testament.

and David the seventh
David, whose name in Hebrew "דָּוִד" (David) means "beloved," is one of the most significant figures in the Bible. Being the seventh son is symbolically important, as the number seven often represents completeness or perfection in biblical literature. David's position as the youngest son, yet chosen by God to be king, underscores the biblical theme that God often chooses the least likely individuals to fulfill His purposes, demonstrating His sovereignty and the reversal of human expectations. David's life and reign are central to the narrative of Israel, as he is the one through whom God establishes a covenant, promising that his throne will be established forever, ultimately fulfilled in Jesus Christ, the Messiah. This verse, though simple in its genealogical listing, points to the unfolding of God's redemptive plan through David's lineage, inspiring believers to trust in God's providential guidance and His ability to bring about His purposes through unexpected means.
