Exegesis
The series of proper names ʿAbdôn {עַבְדּוֹן | ʿaḇ-dôn}, Ṣur {צוּר | ṣûr}, Qîš {קִישׁ | qîš}, Baʿal {בַעַל | ba-ʿal}, Nēr {נֵר | nēr}, Nāḏāḇ {נָדָב | nā-dāḇ} are each introduced by the conjunction wə {וְ | wə}, producing an additive paratactic list. In English this is rendered as an initial subject–predicate clause for the primogeniture and then a coordinated enumeration of the remaining sons, preserving the Hebrew SVO clause order for the key statement.
In context — 1 Chronicles 9:36
And his son , the firstborn , was Abdon; then Zur, Kish, Baal, Ner, and Nadab.
