Adam Clarke's Commentary on the Bible - 1 Chronicles 9:1

Were reckoned by genealogies - Jarchi considers these as the words of Ezra, the compiler of the book; as if he had said: I have given the genealogies of the Israelites as I have found them in a book which was carried into Babylon, when the people were carried thither for their transgressions; and this book which I found is that which I have transcribed in the preceding chapters. read more

Adam Clarke's Commentary on the Bible - 1 Chronicles 9:2

Now the first inhabitants - This is spoken of those who returned from the Babylonish captivity, and of the time in which they returned; for it is insinuated here that other persons afterwards settled at Jerusalem, though these mentioned here were the first on the return from the captivity. Properly speaking, the divisions mentioned in this verse constituted the whole of the Israelitish people, who were, ever since the days of Joshua, divided into the four following classes: The... read more

Adam Clarke's Commentary on the Bible - 1 Chronicles 9:3

And in Jerusalem dwelt - Several of the tribes of Judah, Benjamin, Ephraim, and Manasseh, took advantage of the proclamation of Cyrus to return to Jerusalem, and so mingled with the Israelites, and those to whom Jerusalem had previously appertained; and this was necessary in order to provide a sufficient population for so large a city. read more

Adam Clarke's Commentary on the Bible - 1 Chronicles 9:4

Uthai the son of Ammihud - The list here is nearly the same with those found in Ezra and Nehemiah, and contains those who returned to Jerusalem with Zerubbabel; but the list in Nehemiah is more ample, probably because it contains those who came afterwards. The object of the sacred writer here was to give the list of those who came first. Now the first inhabitants, etc. read more

The Pulpit Commentary - 1 Chronicles 9:1

EXPOSITION So all Israel were reckoned by genealogies . The Hebrew verb ( חִתְיַחְשׂי ) is sufficiently satisfied by the rendering were enrolled , or were registered. The book of the kings of Israel and Judah . The book referred to is often styled "The book of the kings of Israel" ( 2 Chronicles 20:34 ; 2 Chronicles 33:18 ); and it is more probable that that is the intended title here, and that the words should follow thus: And Judah were carried captive to Babylon... read more

The Pulpit Commentary - 1 Chronicles 9:2

Now the first inhabitants that dwelt in their possessions, in their cities . Authorities are very divided as to whether this expression describes inhabitants of the land before the Captivity or subsequent to it. Almost all the older authorities, and Keil amongst those of more modern date, take the former position; Movers, Bertheau, and others take the latter, as also Canon Rawlinson. It must be admitted that there is some obscurity, and which accounts for the contrariety of opinion. But... read more

The Pulpit Commentary - 1 Chronicles 9:4

This verse contains a short list, with many links wanting, of descendants of Judah through Pharez, six in number, and in reverse order. .4. similar list as regards its extreme terms is that which we find in Nehemiah 11:4 , but only three ( Uthai, Imri, Pharez ) of the six names here can be considered identical with a like number ( Athaiah , Amariah , Perez ) out of the seven found there. Nehemiah 11:6 adds, "The number of the sons of Perez that dwelt at Jerusalem four hundred... read more

The Shilonites . These are the descendants of Shelah, youngest son of Judah. In place of the one name Asaiah here, Nehemiah ( Nehemiah 11:7 ) gives a list of seven, among which Maassiah is found, answering to our Asaiah. read more

No corresponding list whatever is found in Nehemiah, but in Nehemiah 11:24 mention is made of "Pethahiah the son of Meshezabeel, of the children of Zerah ." Zeta was twin brother of Pharez ( Genesis 38:30 ). read more
