Ira an Ithrite. Apparently the same as the Ira who was one of the chief rulers of David (ch. 20:26).

Gareb an Ithrite. The Ithrites were families from the neighborhood of Kirjath-jearim (1 Chron. 2:53), a village about 8 mi. (13 km.) west by north from Jerusalem, where the ark was placed after being sent back to Beth-shemesh by the Philistines who had captured it (1 Sam. 7:1,2).
