Abigail was the daughter of King Nahash the Ammonite and (?) (wife of King Nahash and Jesse).2 Abigail married Jether the Ishmaelite, son of Ishmaelites.4
Abigail and Zeruiah are listed as the sisters of the sons of Jesse, not as his daugthers in 1 Chronicles 2:16. 2 Sam 17:25 calls Abigail the daugther of King Nahash the Ammonite. I am thus presuming that somehow they share a common mother: (?) (wife of King Nahash and Jesse).5
