3. Simeon, Reuben, Gad, and Manasseh CHAPTERS 4:24-5:26 1. The sons of Simeon (1 Chronicles 4:24-43 ) 2. The sons of Reuben (1 Chronicles 5:1-10 ) 3. The children of Gad and half Manasseh (1 Chronicles 5:11-26 ) The account of the Simeonites is interesting. Some of their families had increased so much that they had no pasture for their flocks.

Robert Hawker

Hawker's Poor Man's Commentary - 1 Chronicles 4:24-43

The descendants of Simeon occupy the history of these verses with an account of the places of their settlement. The genealogy of this tribe was considered of sufficient importance in the register of families, to be faithfully preserved. For though our Lord did not spring from Simeon; yet perhaps to avoid contention in this tribe, it was highly proper to settle it in this manner. read more

G. Campbell Morgan

G. Campbell Morgan's Exposition on the Whole Bible - 1 Chronicles 4:1-43

Here another line from Judah is traced, and must be viewed in the light of the royalty manifest in David. It is the story of the multiplication and settlement of the people who became workers in the great kingdom. Thus we have the descent of such as became workers in fine linen, of the potters, and also of the king's workmen. Two verses of this section tell the story of one man, and of how he, by prayer and obedience, obtained the favor of God. Incidentally, the story is full of interest. In... read more
