VASHNI văsh’ nī (וַשְׁנִ֖י, LXX^B Σανει, LXX^A Σανι). Samuel’s first-born son, according to KJV (1 Chron 6:28). However, since 1 Samuel 8:2 and Lagarde’s Gr. OT and Syr. of 1 Chronicles 6:28 all list Joel as Samuel’s firstborn, most textual scholars believe his name dropped out of the MT due to homoioteleuton. They restore it, and by adding the definite article and repointing the word “Vashni” they obtain the tr. “and the second” (so Lagarde Gr. OT, Syr., ASV, RSV).
