Commentaire sur Samuel 2 21:8
וַיִּקַּ֣ח הַמֶּ֡לֶךְ אֶת־שְׁ֠נֵי בְּנֵ֨י רִצְפָּ֤ה בַת־אַיָּה֙ אֲשֶׁ֣ר יָלְדָ֣ה לְשָׁא֔וּל אֶת־אַרְמֹנִ֖י וְאֶת־מְפִבֹ֑שֶׁת וְאֶת־חֲמֵ֗שֶׁת בְּנֵי֙ מִיכַ֣ל בַּת־שָׁא֔וּל אֲשֶׁ֥ר יָלְדָ֛ה לְעַדְרִיאֵ֥ל בֶּן־בַּרְזִלַּ֖י הַמְּחֹלָתִֽי׃
et il prit les deux fils que Riçpa, fille d’Ayya, avait donnés à Saül, Armôni et Mephiboseth, et les cinq fils que Mikhal, fille de Saül, avait donnés à Adriel, fils de Barzillaï, de Mehola.
Rashi on II Samuel
Sons of Michal, the daughter of Shaul who had bore them to Adriel. Did Michal give birth [to these children]? It was Meirav who bore [those children] to [Adriel]. [The explanation is] that Meirav gave birth [to them] and Michal16Meirav’s sister. raised them, that is why they are called by her name because someone who raises male and female orphans in their house it is considered as if that person gave birth [to the child] and [the child] is called by his name.17Sanhedrin 19a.
