Barnes' Notes
Mephibosheth was five years old at Saul' s death. He may have been thirteen at David' s accession to the throne of Israel. In the eighth year of David' s reign over all Israel he would have been twenty-one. His having a son at this time indicates that we are about the 10th year of David' s reign.
Micha - Or Micah; who, as far as we know, was Mephibosheth' s only son, and had a numerous posterity (marginal references).
