1 Chronicles 7:23
And when he went in to his wife, she conceived, and bare a son, and he called his name Beriah, because it went evil with his house.
And when he went in to his wife,.... After his grief and sorrow in part at least had subsided:
she conceived and bare a son; which in some measure made up for the loss he had sustained:
and he called his name Beriah; which signifies being "in evil" or calamity, he being born in an evil time:
because it went evil with his house; or evil was in his house, as Noldius {m}, in his family; a great calamity had befallen it.
