1 Chronicles 8:6-7 -

Ehud . We are brought to a halt again by the sudden introduction of this name. Even if it stand for Abihud ( 1 Chronicles 8:3 ) or for Ahoah ( 1 Chronicles 8:4 ), why is it changed in so short an interval? It is impossible to establish order in these verses except by most gratuitous conjecture. But it may be supposed that the verses say that Ehud's people once belonged to Manahath , that the heads of them removed them to Geba ( Joshua 18:24 ), and that he himself (query, Ehud? but commonly read Gera ) removed them, and also Naaman, and Ahiah, and Gera (which look very much like the Naaman, Ahoah, and Gera of 1 Chronicles 8:4 , 1 Chronicles 8:5 ); and finally that after the removing "he" had two fresh sons, Uzza and Ahihud .
