Saul was the father of Jonathan, Malki-Shua, Abinadab, and Eshbaal. 40 The son of Jonathan: Meribbaal, who was the father of Micah. 41 The sons of Micah: Pithon, Melech, Tahrea, and Ahaz. 42 Ahaz was the father of Jarah, and Jarah was the father of Alemeth, Azmaveth, and Zimri. Zimri was the father of Moza, 43 and Moza was the father of Binea.
