1 Chronicles 7:9 Ulasan

In this chapter we have some account of the genealogies, I. Of Issachar (Ch1 7:1-5). II. Of Benjamin (Ch1 7:6-12). III. Of Naphtali (Ch1 7:13). IV. Of Manasseh (Ch1 7:14-19). V. Of Ephraim (Ch1 7:20-29). VI. Of Asher (Ch1 7:30-40). Here is no account either of Zebulun or Dan. Why they only should be omitted we can assign no reason; only it is the disgrace of the tribe of Dan that idolatry began in that colony of the Danites which fixed in Laish, and called Dan, and there one of the golden calves was set up by Jeroboam. Dan is omitted, Rev. 7.

INTRODUCTION TO 1 CHRONICLES 7 In this chapter are given the genealogies of the tribes of Issachar, Ch1 7:1 of Benjamin, Ch1 7:6 Naphtali, Ch1 7:13, of Manasseh, Ch1 7:14 of Ephraim, Ch1 7:20 and of Asher, Ch1 7:30, even of the chief men of them; and their numbers are reckoned as in the times of David. The tribes of Dan and Zebulun are omitted.

All these the sons of Jediael, by the heads of their fathers, mighty men of valour, were seventeen thousand and two hundred soldiers, fit to go out for war and battle. Which, with the above sums put together, make of the tribe of Benjamin, besides what follow, 59,430; who, if numbered by Joab, the account was not given in by him, Ch1 21:6. . 1 Chronicles 7:12 ch1 7:12 ch1 7:12 ch1 7:12Shuppim also, and Huppim, the children of Ir,.... The same with Iri, Ch1 7:7 so that these were not sons of Benjamin, as they seem to be, if they are the same with Muppim and Huppim in Gen 46:21 but his great-grandchildren, and are the same with Shupham and Hupham, from whom families of the tribe of Benjamin sprung, Num 26:39 the Targum calls them the inhabitants of a city, but of what is not said, unless Geba should be meant, Ch1 8:6 and Hushim, the sons of Aher: either the same with Aharah, the third son of Benjamin, Ch1 8:1 or Ahiram, Num 26:38, though some read the words, "the sons of another"; whom they suppose to be Dan, who otherwise is omitted; and Hushim is the only son of Dan, Gen 46:23, where the same plural word is used as here; who, they think, is called another, by way of detestation, that tribe being guilty of gross idolatry; but he rather seems to belong to Benjamin.
