1 Chronicles 1:40-42

1:40

Alyan <05935> [Alian.]

Both these variations are also caused by the mutation of [Y“wd] {yood} and [Vƒv] {wav}; the former being written [Alvƒn <\\See definition 05935\\>,] Alvan, and [Alyƒn <\\See definition 05935\\>,] Alian; and the latter, [Sheph“w <\\See definition 08195\\>,] Shepho, and [ShepŒy <\\See definition 08195\\>,] Shephi.

[Alvan, Shepho. Aiyah.]

The difference here is only in the translation; the original being uniformly [AyÆ’h <\\See definition 0345\\>,] Aiyah.

[Ajah.]

1:41

Dishon ..... Dishon <01787> [Dishon.]

Hamran <02566> [Amram.]

This variation is only caused by the mutation of a [Dƒleth,] {daleth,} and a [Rˆyah,] {raish;} the original being in Genesis [Chemdƒn <\\See definition 02533\\>,] Hemdan, and here [Amrƒm <\\See definition 06019\\>,] Hamran.

[Hemdan.]

1:42

Zaavan <02190> [Zavan.]

The former of these is the same in the original, [z`wn <\\See definition 02190\\>,] Zavan, and the latter, [y`qn,] is an error for [w`qn,] {w‰akan,} "and Achan."

[Zaavan, Achan. Uz.]

Onam <0208> [Onam.]

1 Chronicles 3:9

Tamar <08559> [Tamar.]

1 Chronicles 3:19

3:19

sons ... Pedaiah ...... sons <06305 01121> [the sons of Pedaiah.]

As St. Matthew states that Zerubbabel was the son of Salathiel, Houbigant thinks these words should be omitted; and Pedaiah is wanting in the Arabic and Syriac.

Zerubbabel ....... Zerubbabel <02216> [Zerubbabel.]

[Zorobabel.]

1 Chronicles 4:13

4:13

Kenaz <07073> [Kenaz.]

cousins <0251> [brethren. or, kinsmen. took them.]

1 Chronicles 26:6

26:6

highly respected <02428 01368> [mighty men of valour.]

They were not only porters, or door keepers, in the ordinary sense of the word, but they were a military guard to the gate, as Dr. Delaney suggests that the word {sh”ƒrim} should be rendered here: and perhaps in this sense alone are we to understand their office, which appears to have been of considerable dignity, and conferred only on men of the first rank. They were appointed to attend the temple, to guard all the avenues to it, to open and shut all the outer gates, and attend at them, not only for state but for service. They were also required to direct and instruct those who were going to worship in the courts of the sanctuary in the conduct they were to observe, to encourage those who were timid, to send back the strangers and unclean, and to guard against thieves and others who were enemies to the house of God.

1 Chronicles 27:16

27:16

tribes <07626> [Furthermore.]

These persons, called "princes of the tribes," in ver. 22, and ch. 28:1, appear to have been civil rulers over their several tribes, and honorary men, without pay, not unlike the lords lieutenants of our counties. In this enumeration there is no mention of the tribes of Gad and Asher, probably because they were joined to the neighbouring tribes; or perhaps, the account of these has been lost from the register.

1 Chronicles 27:21

Iddo <03035> [Iddo.]

Abner <074> [Abner.]
