Translation commentary on 1 Chronicles 2:33

Jonathan is mentioned in the previous verse, and Jerahmeel was introduced in verse 9 as the son of Hezron.

These were the descendants of Jerahmeel: This concluding sentence closes the subsection that began with verse 25. It may be made a separate paragraph (so La Bible de Jérusalem: Nouvelle édition revue et corrigée).
