- Joel:
- While it is sufficiently evident that many of the variations of the names of persons have arisen from the carelessness of transcribers, or the inattention of translators, and others from a difference (probably dialectical) in the pronunciation; it is also evident, that the same persons, as in these instances, must have had two or more totally distinct names ("Tahathª his son,ª Urielª his son,ª Uzziahª his son,ª and Shaulª his son.ª" {1Ch 6:24}), Shaul, Uzziah, Uriel.
