1 Chronicles 4:11

_AND CHELUB THE BROTHER OF SHUAH BEGAT MEHIR, WHICH WAS THE FATHER OF ESHTON._ No JFB commentary on these verses....

It has been conjectured from the strangeness of all the names in this list, that we have here a fragment of Canaanite record, connected with the family of the “Shua,” whose daughter Judah took to wife 1 Chronicles 2:3; Genesis 38:2, and whose family thus became related to the tribe of Judah....

EXPOSITION 1 CHRONICLES 4:1 After the large space given to the "sons of David," of the tribe of Judah, in the previous chapter, this chapter returns for twenty-three verses to group together a few additional ramifications of the same tribe, whose registers were for some reasons, perhaps not very evident, preserved and known. The first verses follow in the direction already indicated in 1 Chronicles 2:1; near the end of which we were left with Shobal and Haroeh, probably the same with Reaiah (the same name as Reaia, 1 Chronicles 5:5, though not the same person)....

AND CHELUB THE BROTHER OF SHUAH BEGAT MEHIR,.... If Shuah is the same with Hushah, 1 Chronicles 4:4, then Chelub was the son of Ezer: WHICH WAS THE FATHER OF ESHTON; not the prince of a place called Eshton, as Vatablus; for it is the name of a man, the son of Mehir, and who in the next verse is said to beget sons....

Descendants of Shelah (1 Chronicles 4:21) Hur and Shobal, mentioned in the first verse, were the sons of Caleb the son of Hezron. The families of the Zorathites sprang from Reaiah, the son of Shobal. Jabez is especially mentioned. Jabez means “He causes pain.” “And Jabez called on the God of Israel, saying, Oh that Thou wouldest bless me indeed, and enlarge my coast, and that

THE BOOK OF 1 CHRONICLES GOD RULES HISTORY 1 CHRONICLES _Ian Mackervoy_ CHAPTER 4 OTHER FAMILIES OF JUDAH – 1 CHRONICLES 4:1-23 V1 Judah’s *descendants were Perez, Hezron, Carmi, Hur, and Shobal. V2 Reaiah was Shobal’s son. Reaiah was the father of Jahath. Jahath was the father of Ahumai and Lahad. They were called the Zorath *clan. V3-4 Hur was the oldest son in Ephrathah’s family. Hur was the leader of Bethlehem. His three sons were Etam, Penuel, and Ezer

(11-12) A fragment relating to the “men of Rechah,” a name which occurs nowhere else, and for which Rechab appears a plausible correction. So the Vat., LXX. Ρηχάβ. Compare 1 Chronicles 2:55, where the Sopherim of Jabez are called Rechabites, and see Notes on the passage. These Rechabites united with the Salmaite branch of Hurites; and Hur was a son of Caleb, 1 Chronicles 2:19. Hence it is likely that the Chelub of 1 Chronicles 4:11 is identical with the Caleb-Chelubai of 1 Chronicles 2, who represents a main division of the Hezronites. Others suppose that the epithet, “brother of Shuah” (Shuhah), is meant to obviate th
