Hawker's Poor Man's Commentary - 1 Chronicles 8:3-40

I see no cause for interruption in the catalogue of the Benjamites, from the beginning of the chapter to the end, and therefore have made none. One of two general observations are all that seem to present themselves from the whole, and therefore may as well be made in the close, as in the body of the chapter. The Reader of curiosity who compares this register of the Benjamites, with some other detached views of their Chronicles, as they are occasionally introduced in other parts of scripture,... read more

G. Campbell Morgan's Exposition on the Whole Bible - 1 Chronicles 8:1-40

This whole chapter constitutes a fuller account of the house of Benjamin. It seems to be a collection of names and very little more. Among them, however, after the name of the founder, Benjamin, two stand out conspicuously, Saul and Jonathan. They are almost buried among the rest, and yet most probably constitute the reason of this comparatively large section devoted to the genealogy of the house of Benjamin. As we have said more than once, the chief interest of the Book centers around David,... read more

Sutcliffe's Commentary on the Old and New Testaments - 1 Chronicles 8:1-40

1 Chronicles 8:1 .
