This Chapter Verse Commentaries:





These are the sons; either those three last mentioned; or rather these following, 1Ch_8:7, because he here speaks of them who were removed, and they are said to be removed, 1Ch_8:7



He describes the sons of Benjamin by the places of their habitation, without an exact account of their parents, because their genealogies were broken by that almost total extirpation of this tribe, Jud 20.



They removed them; either their fathers, or their heads and superiors, removed them; or they removed themselves; either because they were too numerous for that place, or because they desired to change their habitation, and hoped it would be for the better, and judged Manahath a more convenient place.
