TSK Now the sons of Issachar were, Tola, and Puah, Jashub, and Shimron, four. Genesis 46:13 And the sons of Issachar; Tola, and Phuvah, and Job, and Shimron. Phuvah, Job. Numbers 26:23,24 Of the sons of Issachar after their families: of Tola, the family … Pua. And the sons of Tola; Uzzi, and Rephaiah, and Jeriel, and Jahmai, and Jibsam, and Shemuel, heads of their father's house, to wit, of Tola: they were valiant men of might in their generations; whose number was in the days of David two and twenty thousand and six hundred. whose number. This was probably the number returned by Joab and his assistants, when they made that census of the people with which God was so much displeased. We find that the effective men of Issachar amounted to 1 Chronicles 7:5 And their brothers among all the families of Issachar were valiant … 1 Chronicles 21:1-5 And Satan stood up against Israel, and provoked David to number Israel… 1 Chronicles 27:1,23,24 Now the children of Israel after their number, to wit, the chief … 2 Samuel 24:1-9 And again the anger of the LORD was kindled against Israel, and he … And the sons of Uzzi; Izrahiah: and the sons of Izrahiah; Michael, and Obadiah, and Joel, Ishiah, five: all of them chief men.
And with them, by their generations, after the house of their fathers, were bands of soldiers for war, six and thirty thousand men: for they had many wives and sons.
And their brethren among all the families of Issachar were valiant men of might, reckoned in all by their genealogies fourscore and seven thousand.
The sons of Benjamin; Bela, and Becher, and Jediael, three. of Benjamin. In the parallel place of Genesis, ten sons of Benjamin are reckoned, Bela, Becher, Ashbel, Gera, Naaman, Ehi, Rosh, Muppim, Huppim, and Ard; and in Numbers, five only are mentioned, Bela, Ashbel, Ahiraim, Shupham, and Hupham; and Ard and Naaman are said to be the sons of Bela, and consequently Benjamin's grandsons. In the beginning of the following chapter, also, five are only mentioned, Bela, Ashbel, Aharah, Nohah, and Rapha; and Addar, Gera, Abihud, Abishua, Naaman, Ahoha, another Gera, Shephuphan, and Huram, are all represented as grandsons, not sons of Benjamin: hence we see that in many cases, grandsons are called sons, and both are often confounded in the genealogical tables. It seems, also, that the persons mentioned in the following verses were neither sons nor grandsons of Bela and Becher, but distinguished persons among their descendants. 1 Chronicles 8:1-12 Now Benjamin begat Bela his firstborn, Ashbel the second, and Aharah … Genesis 46:21 And the sons of Benjamin were Belah, and Becher, and Ashbel, Gera, … Numbers 26:38-41 The sons of Benjamin after their families: of Bela, the family of … Jediael. 1 Chronicles 7:10,11 The sons also of Jediael; Bilhan: and the sons of Bilhan; Jeush, … And the sons of Bela; Ezbon, and Uzzi, and Uzziel, and Jerimoth, and Iri, five; heads of the house of their fathers, mighty men of valour; and were reckoned by their genealogies twenty and two thousand and thirty and four. were reckoned 1 Chronicles 21:1-5 And Satan stood up against Israel, and provoked David to number Israel… 2 Chronicles 17:17,18 And of Benjamin; Eliada a mighty man of valor, and with him armed … And the sons of Becher; Zemira, and Joash, and Eliezer, and Elioenai, and Omri, and Jerimoth, and Abiah, and Anathoth, and Alameth. All these are the sons of Becher.
And the number of them, after their genealogy by their generations, heads of the house of their fathers, mighty men of valour, was twenty thousand and two hundred.
The sons also of Jediael; Bilhan: and the sons of Bilhan; Jeush, and Benjamin, and Ehud, and Chenaanah, and Zethan, and Tharshish, and Ahishahar.
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.
Shuppim also, and Huppim, the children of Ir, and Hushim, the sons of Aher. Shuppim 1 Chronicles 7:15 And Machir took to wife the sister of Huppim and Shuppim, whose sister's … Genesis 46:21 And the sons of Benjamin were Belah, and Becher, and Ashbel, Gera, … Muppim, Huppim Numbers 26:39 Of Shupham, the family of the Shuphamites: of Hupham, the family … Shupham, Hupham 1 Chronicles 7:7 And the sons of Bela; Ezbon, and Uzzi, and Uzziel, and Jerimoth, … Iri Genesis 46:23 And the sons of Dan; Hushim. And they suppose that the name of Dan was not mentioned, because his descendants first established idolatry. But Zebulun, as well as Dan, is here omitted, perhaps because none of either of these tribes returned at first from Babylon. Though the Benjamites had been almost destroyed in the first days of the judges, they soon became numerous and powerful. Numbers 26:38 The sons of Benjamin after their families: of Bela, the family of … Ahiram The sons of Naphtali; Jahziel, and Guni, and Jezer, and Shallum, the sons of Bilhah.

Probably it should be rendered, `The sons of Manasseh were Ashriel, who his Syrian concubines bore to him; and Machir the father of Gilead, whom (his wife) bore to him. Machir took for a wife Maachah, sister to Huppim and Shuppim.' This is nearly the version of Dr. Geddes. Machir 1 Chronicles 2:21-23 And afterward Hezron went in to the daughter of Machir the father … Genesis 50:23 And Joseph saw Ephraim's children of the third generation… Numbers 26:29-34 Of the sons of Manasseh: of Machir, the family of the Machirites: … Numbers 27:1 Then came the daughters of Zelophehad, the son of Hepher, the son … Numbers 32:30-42 But if they will not pass over with you armed, they shall have possessions … Deuteronomy 3:13-15 And the rest of Gilead, and all Bashan, being the kingdom of Og, … Joshua 13:31 And half Gilead, and Ashtaroth, and Edrei, cities of the kingdom … Joshua 17:1-3 There was also a lot for the tribe of Manasseh; for he was the firstborn … Judges 5:14 Out of Ephraim was there a root of them against Amalek; after you, … And Machir took to wife the sister of Huppim and Shuppim, whose sister's name was Maachah;) and the name of the second was Zelophehad: and Zelophehad had daughters. Huppim 1 Chronicles 7:12 Shuppim also, and Huppim, the children of Ir, and Hushim, the sons of Aher. and the name It is certain that Zelophehad was not a son, but a descendant of Manasseh's, three generations having intervened; for he was the son of Hepher, the son of Gilead, the son of Machir, the son of Manasseh. and Zelophehad Numbers 26:33 And Zelophehad the son of Hepher had no sons, but daughters: and … Numbers 27:1-11 Then came the daughters of Zelophehad, the son of Hepher, the son … Numbers 36:1-12 And the chief fathers of the families of the children of Gilead, … And Maachah the wife of Machir bare a son, and she called his name Peresh; and the name of his brother was Sheresh; and his sons were Ulam and Rakem.
And the sons of Ulam; Bedan. These were the sons of Gilead, the son of Machir, the son of Manasseh.
And his sister Hammoleketh bare Ishod, and Abiezer, and Mahalah. Numbers 26:30 These are the sons of Gilead: of Jeezer, the family of the Jeezerites: … Jeezer Judges 6:11,24,34 And there came an angel of the LORD, and sat under an oak which was … Judges 8:2 And he said to them, What have I done now in comparison of you?… And the sons of Shemida were, Ahian, and Shechem, and Likhi, and Aniam.

This is the only place in the Sacred Writings where this piece of history is mentioned, and the transaction seems to have happened before the Israelites came out of Egypt; for it appears from the following verse, that Ephraim was alive when these children of his were slain. And Ephraim their father mourned many days, and his brethren came to comfort him. mourned Genesis 37:34 And Jacob rent his clothes, and put sackcloth on his loins, and mourned … and his brethren Job 2:11 Now when Job's three friends heard of all this evil that was come … And when he went in to his wife, she conceived, and bare a son, and he called his name Beriah, because it went evil with his house. Beriah that is, In evil because Many similar instances of the naming of children from passing circumstances, occur throughout the sacred volume. See those of a similar character with this verse: Genesis 35:18 And it came to pass, as her soul was in departing, (for she died) … 1 Samuel 4:21 And she named the child Ichabod, saying, The glory is departed from … 1 Samuel 4:9 Be strong and quit yourselves like men, O you Philistines, that you … 2 Samuel 23:5 Although my house be not so with God; yet he has made with me an … (And his daughter was Sherah, who built Bethhoron the nether, and the upper, and Uzzensherah.)
