Which Mephibosheth was the lame son of Jonathan whom David showed kindness to?

Explanation:
David’s act of kindness to the one who is Jonathan’s son shows how loyalty to a friend extends to his family. The person in view is Mephibosheth, Jonathan’s son who was crippled in both feet from infancy after his nurse fled in fear during Saul’s reign. Because of his covenant with Jonathan, David seeks out any remaining member of Saul’s house to show mercy, brings Mephibosheth to the king, restores Saul’s land to him, and invites him to share the king’s table. The other names listed are different figures in Israel’s history, not Jonathan’s son who was lame.
