"The mass of two sons is named Machlon and the mass is named Kilyon."  I
suppose that this works, but  isn't there a way to do this unambiguously
without going to "the one son..., the other son..."?  This would be true if
one of the boys were called by both names and the other was just plain Bill.  
And, of course, there is the issue of what the mass itself is called --
probably "the sons of Elimelech" or so.
