The Definition of the word Salathiel

Salathiel

Whom I asked of God, the son of Jeconiah (Matt. 1:12; 1 Chr. 3:17); also called the son of Neri (Luke 3:27). The probable explanation of the apparent discrepancy is that he was the son "of Neri, the descendant of Nathan, and thus heir to the throne" of David on the death of Jeconiah (comp. Jer. 22:30).
