Who this is
Mikloth is not a place but a name shared by two men in Chronicles. One Mikloth belonged to the Benjamite family that settled in Gibeon, appearing in the genealogy leading to King Saul as the father of Shimeah (1 Chronicles 8:32; 9:37-38). A different Mikloth served as a military officer under Dodai, commanding one of David's monthly divisions of twenty-four thousand troops (1 Chronicles 27:4).
