Reference: Ner

Easton

light, the father of Kish (1Ch 8:33). 1Sa 14:51 should be read, "Kish, the father of Saul, and Ner, the father of Abner, were the sons of Abiel." And hence this Kish and Ner were brothers, and Saul and Abner were first cousins (comp. 1Ch 9:36).

Fausets

Son of Jehiel, father of Kish, grandfather of Saul; also father of Ner, Saul's uncle (1Ch 8:33; 1Sa 14:50). Kish in 1Ch 9:35-36, is an elder Kish, brother of Ner; or else is enumerated with Jehiel's "sons" (though really his grandson), because he was head of a house of fathers. Gibeon was the family abode. Jehiel's wife Maachah seemingly was descendant of Caleb by Ephah his concubine, and heiress of the estate in Gibea or Gibeon (1Ch 2:46,48-49; 8:29; 9:35; 14:16; Lord A. Hervey in Smith's Bible Dictionary).

Morish

Son of Abiel, father of Abner, and Saul's uncle. 1Sa 14:50-51. The genealogy here falls thus:

Abiel.

/ \

Kish. Ner.

| |

Saul. Abner.

This differs from the Chronicles, where Ner is the son of Jehiel of Gibeon, and the father of Kish, the father of Saul. 1Ch 8:33; 9:36,39. The rabbis say that this Ner is the same person as Abiel; but others suppose him to be some earlier ancestor not elsewhere mentioned.
