1 Samuel 16:10

Context
16:10 Jesse presented seven of his sons to Samuel. 1  But Samuel said to Jesse, “The Lord has not chosen any of these.”

1 tn Heb “caused seven of his sons to pass before Samuel.” This could be taken as referring to seven sons in addition to the three mentioned before this, but 1 Sam 17:12 says Jesse had eight sons, not eleven. 1 Chr 2:13-15 lists only seven sons, including David. However, 1 Chr 27:18 mentions an additional son, named Elihu.
