See note. to (1 Chronicles 7:6). The names Nok and Raf are not found anywhere else. 1 Chronicles 8:3. The sons of Bela were: Addar, Hera, Abihu, 1 Chronicles 8:4. Avishua, Naaman, Ahoah, 1 Chronicles 8:5. Gera, Shefufan and Khuram. Adar is the same name as Ard (Gen.46:22 and Num.26:40). The rearrangement of letters was probably done in 1 Chronicles to make it easier to pronounce. In the last place, as in this verse, he is called the son of Bela, but not Benjamin, in contrast (Gen. 46:41). The same thing is observed regarding Naaman. The name Hera, found in v. 3 and v. 5, is spelled the same in the Hebrew text. LXX distinguishes two names - Γηρὰ (v. 3) and Γερὰ (v. 5). In the book. In Genesis it is mentioned only once, as the name of the son of Benjamin (Gen. 46:21), and in the book of Numbers it does not appear at all. Shefufam and Khuram are not numbered in the book of Numbers, and also here, in contrast to the book. Genesis, to the sons of Benjamin (Gen.46:21). Abihu, Abishua, and Ahoah are not mentioned anywhere else as descendants of Benjamin. 1 Chronicles 8:6. And these are the sons of Ehud, who were the heads of the clans who lived in Geba and were resettled in Manahath: Some people identify the name Ehud with the name of the Israeli judge “Ehud” (more precisely in Hebrew “Yehud”). But since Ehud and Yehud are different names in their roots, then, according to others, there can be no talk of identity. If the place “Manahaf” is not related to Manahat (1 Chronicles 2:54), then its position is completely unknown, just as the persons and events mentioned below are unknown. 1 Chronicles 8:8. Shegaraim gave birth to children in the land of Moab after he sent his wives away from him, Chushima and Baara. 1 Chronicles 8:9. And he begat his wife Chodesh, Jobab, Zibiya, Mesha, Malham, 1 Chronicles 8:10. Jehuza, Shahia and Mirma: these are his sons, the heads of generations. 1 Chronicles 8:11. From Hushima he fathered Avitub and Elpaal. 1 Chronicles 8:12. The sons of Elpaal: Eber, Mesham and Shemer, who built Ono and Lod and the cities dependent on it, - The identity of Shegaraim, his children and their connection with the above-mentioned descendants of Benjamin remain completely unknown. The cities built by Shemer are mentioned first in (1 Ezra 2:33; Neh. 6:2,7:37,11:35); about the second - Lydda, or Diospolis, which lay north of Carmel, on the road from Jerusalem to Jaffa, in (1 Ezra 2:33; Neh. 7:37,11:35; 1 Mac. 11:34; Acts 9:32). Judging by the position of these cities, far beyond the borders of the tribe of Benjamin, on the borders of the ancient inheritance of Dan, it can be assumed that here we are talking about later times, when the generational distinction lost its force for obtaining the right to own one or another piece of land. 1 Chronicles 8:13. and Beria and Shema. They were the heads of generations of the inhabitants of Aialon. They drove out the people of Gath. 1 Chronicles 8:14. Ahio, Shashak, Iremof, 1 Chronicles 8:15.

Adaiah, Beraiah and Shimraf are the sons of Shimei. 1 Chronicles 8:22. Ishpan, Eber, Eliel, 1 Chronicles 8:23. Avdon, Zichri, Hanan, 1 Chronicles 8:24. Hananiah, Elam, Antofiya, 1 Chronicles 8:25.

These are the heads of generations, the main ones in their clans. They lived in Jerusalem. The family connection of Beria and Shema, as well as all of the following with previous persons, is unknown. According to the ancient division of the land of Israel, Aijalon is the city of the tribe of Dan, ceded to the Levites (Joshua 10:12,19:42,21:24). But as can be seen from this verse, its population in later times belonged to the descendants of Veniamin. 1 Chronicles 8:29. In Gibeon lived: [Jel,] the father of the Gibeonites - the name of his wife was Maach - The father of the inhabitants of Gibeon, a city that lay northwest of Jerusalem, about seven miles from it, according to (1 Chronicles 9:35), is Jeel. His name is not found anywhere else; Likewise, the origin from Benjamin is not indicated. 1 Chronicles 8:30. and his son, the firstborn Abdon, after him Zur, Kish, Baal, Nadab, [Ner,] 1 Chronicles 8:31. Gedor, Ahio, Zeher and Miklof. Compared to (1 Chronicles 9:36). in this place, the sixth son of Jeel, Hep, is omitted: mention of him is necessary due to the fact that his generation is described from (1 Chronicles 7:33). Instead of the name Zecher in (1 Chronicles 9:37) there is Zechariah. 1 Chronicles 8:32. Miklof gave birth to Shimei. And they lived beside their brothers in Jerusalem, together with their brothers. Instead of the name Shimei in (1 Chronicles 9:38) there is Shimeam. 1 Chronicles 8:33. Ner gave birth to Kis; Kish begat Saul; Saul fathered Jonathan, Melchish, Abinadab, and Eshbaal. Since in (1 Samuel 9:1,14:51) the father of Kish and the grandfather of Saul is Abiel, then Nir of this verse is obviously the more distant of the ancestors. Instead of Saul's four sons (1 Samuel 14:49), he names only three: Jonathan, Ishvi and Melchisu. But Ishvi, as can be seen from (1 Samuel 31:2) and (1 Chronicles 10:2), is only another name for Abinadab. In (2 Samuel 2:8) another new son of Saul is mentioned - Ishboshet (Ishbosheth), who is considered one and the same person with Eshbaap. The replacement of the word “Baal” with the expression “boshet” (“shame”, “disgrace” is one of the names of idols (Jer.3:24,11:3; Hos.9:10)) is not an isolated phenomenon; compare Jerubbaal (Judges 6:32) – Jerubesheth (2 Kings 11:21). 1 Chronicles 8:34. Jonathan's son Meribbaal; Meribbaal gave birth to Micah. In (2 Kings 4:4) Jonathan's son is called Mephibosheth (Mephibosheth), but not Meribbaal. But these names have the same meaning: Meribbaal resists the idol, and Mephibosheth destroys the idol. 1 Chronicles 8:35. The sons of Micah: Python, Meleg, Paareah and Ahaz. The names of the sons of Micah (2 Samuel 9:12) are the same as in (1 Chronicles 9:41). Only Farsa in the last place is called Tahrea; the difference is the replacement of one glottal letter (alev) with another (het), which has a stronger aspiration. 1 Chronicles 8:36. Ahaz begat Joiadda; Joiadda begat Alemeth, Azmabeth, and Zimri; Zamri gave birth to Motza; The name Alemeth is used in (1 Chronicles 6:60) as the name of a city from the inheritance of the tribe of Benjamin; Azmathev - as a name of a person (1 Chronicles 11:33; 1 Chronicles 12:3). 1 Chronicles 8:38. Atzel has six sons, and these are their names: Azrikam, Bokhru, Ismail, Shearia, Obadiah and Hanan; they are all sons of Atzel. Both in this verse and in (1 Chronicles 9:44) after the name Azrikam there is the expression “bokhru.” Blessed Jerome and later translators from the Hebrew text recognize this word as their own name, because without it there will be only five sons of Atzel, whereas there should be six. LXX read this word as a common noun - his firstborn, and to replenish the count they added the name Asa, which, however, is not in the Sinai list published Tischendorf. In the Slavic text the name Azariah is inserted in this place, and in (1 Chronicles 9:44) - Asa. 1 Chronicles 8:40.
