TSK · 1 Chronicles 3:2

His fourth son was Adonijah, the son of Haggith. His fifth son was Shephatiah, the son of Abital.

Her brother Absalom said to her,“Was Amnon your brother with you? Now be quiet, my sister. He is your brother. Don’t take it so seriously!” Tamar, devastated, lived in the house of her brother Absalom.

So Joab got up and went to Geshur and brought Absalom back to Jerusalem.

For I made this vow when I was living in Geshur in Aram:‘If the LORD really does allow me to return to Jerusalem, I will serve the LORD.

Prior to this Absalom had set up a monument and dedicated it to himself in the King’s Valley, reasoning“I have no son who will carry on my name.” He named the monument after himself, and to this day it is known as Absalom’s Memorial.

The king covered his face and cried out loudly,“My son, Absalom! Absalom, my son, my son!”

(Now his father had never corrected him by saying,“Why do you do such things?” He was also very handsome and had been born right after Absalom.)

(Geshur and Aram captured the towns of Jair, along with Kenath and its sixty surrounding towns.) All these were descendants of Makir, the father of Gilead.
