Commentary on 1 Chronicles 8 Matthew Henry Commentary
Chapter 8
We had some account given us of Benjamin in the foregoing chapter; here we have a larger catalogue of the great men of that tribe.
1Ch 8:1-32
There is little or nothing of history in all these verses; we have not therefore much to observe.
1Ch 8:33-40
It is observable that among all the genealogies of the tribes there is no mention of any of the kings of Israel after the defection from the house of David, much less of their families; not a word of Jeroboam's house or Baasha's, of Umri's or Jehu's; for they were all idolaters. But of the family of Saul, which was the royal family before the elevation of David, we have here a particular account.
