Notes on the Bible, by Albert Barnes, [1834]
Adonijah - The same who, when David was dying, aspired to the crown, and was put to death by Solomon. Shephatiah - "God is judge." This is the same name as Jehoshaphat, only with the two elements composing it placed in inverted order. Nothing more is known of him or of his brother Ithream.
