Abital

Abital is the woman named as Shephatiah’s mother in 2 Samuel 3:4. The passage calls Shephatiah the fifth son and identifies Abital as his mother. It places that statement immediately after naming Adonijah as the fourth son and Haggith as his mother. Abital is named in at least one verse across one biblical book, 2 Samuel; the recorded coverage begins and ends at 2 Samuel 3:4.
