1 Crônicas 5:26

And the God of Israel ,.... The Targum is,"the word of the God of Israel:"

stirred up the spirit of Pul king of Assyria : in the times of Menahem king of Israel:

and the spirit of Tilgathpilneser ; in the times of Pekah king of Israel, to invade the land, and make war in it:

and he carried them away : not the former, but the latter:

even the Reubenites, and the Gadites, and the half tribe of Manasseh ; these entirely together, with some other parts of the land, see 2 Kings 15:29 .

and brought them unto Halah, and Habor, and Hara, and to the river Gozan ; to the very same places where afterwards Salmaneser carried the ten tribes, or what remained of them, see 2 Kings 17:6 .

unto this day ; the times of Ezra, the writer of this book, after the tribe of Judah returned from the captivity of Babylon; but the ten tribes remained where they were carried, and have not returned even to this day.
