Expository Notes of Dr. Thomas Constable - 1 Chronicles 4:1-23

1. The family of Judah 4:1-23Jacob prophesied that his fourth son, Judah, would become the leader of the Israelites. Through him God would provide the greatest promised blessing to come (Genesis 49:8-12). The Davidic dynasty was one branch of Jacob’s descendants, so the writer had special interest in Judah."Many unrelated fragments have been brought together here in the interests of completeness." [Note: Williamson, p. 58.] Jabez’s prayer (1 Chronicles 4:10) shows that prayer and a... read more

Expository Notes of Dr. Thomas Constable - 1 Chronicles 4:1-40

B. The House of Israel chs. 4-7The writer’s next concern was to trace the line of people to whom and through whom God promised to bring blessing and salvation. That nation was Israel, the descendants of Jacob. The writer viewed Israel as consisting of 12 tribes, not just the tribes represented by the returnees from Babylonian exile. The nation as a whole would have a future. [Note: See Howard, pp. 253-56, for a discussion of the Chronicler’s concern to demonstrate the unity of all the... read more

II.—SONS OF SHELAH, THIRD SON OF JUDAH,1 Chronicles 4:21-23 (omitted by Syriac version).The Shelanite clans were not noticed in 1 Chronicles 2:0 (See Genesis 38:5 and 1 Chronicles 2:3.)(21) Er.—This Er who founded Lecah is, of course, distinct from Er “the firstborn of Judah.” Lecah is unknown. Mareshah, a town in the lowlands of Judah, is connected with Caleb (1 Chronicles 2:42). Such statements are not contradictory. At different periods different tribal divisions might have been settled in... read more

The Prayer of Jabez. The Man 1 Chronicles 4:10 Here we have a very short biography of a very notable, character; there is no long preface to it, no long drawn-out description of what sort of man Jabez was, no flowery description of wonderful virtues and attainments, as are many biographies of Christian men which are too much shorn of the infirmities of the creature, and therefore too much dressed with human wisdom to be of very much use, although they seem to be very taking at times. I. His... read more

James Gray's Concise Bible Commentary - 1 Chronicles 4:1-43

GENEALOGIES AND PEDIGREES INTRODUCTION With this begins the study of those historical books of the Old Testament written shortly after the return from the Babylonian captivity, the remainder of the series including 2 Chronicles, Ezra, Nehemiah, and Esther. “Chronicles” means “diaries” or “journal,” and the books recapitulate sacred history from the time of Adam, in which the earlier books of the Old Testament are drawn upon and occasionally supplemented. The Holy Spirit, who is the real... read more

Some Familiar Names Jabez Caleb 1 Chronicles 4:0 In this chapter we find a compilation of scattered and broken notices, relating to the families or clans of Judah, with references to their settlements and increase at a time which is not specifically determined; this section is first of all a supplement to the account of Judah already given in the first, second, and third chapters, and is also an instalment of the similar survey of the other tribes, which is given in the fourth chapter, from... read more

The People's Bible by Joseph Parker - 1 Chronicles 4:22

"Handfuls of Purpose," For All Gleaners "And these are ancient things." 1 Chronicles 4:22 . A thing is not valuable simply because it is ancient; nor is antiquity any reason why a thing should be undervalued or destroyed. All the greatest things are in reality ancient. They are not ancient in form, they are ancient in spirit. Jesus Christ was slain from before the foundation of the world: the Spirit of God is from the beginning: God himself is from everlasting to everlasting. Whatever had a... read more
