This Chapter Verse Commentaries:

1Ch_5:18 The sons of Reuben, and the Gadites, and half the tribe of Manasseh, of valiant men, men able to bear buckler and sword, and to shoot with bow, and skilful in war, [were] four and forty thousand seven hundred and threescore, that went out to the war.

Ver. 18. Men able to bear buckler and sword, and to shoot with bow.] These weapons were much in use till guns were invented; to the destruction, not of the inventor only - who was therefore hanged they say - but of many other brave marshals.
