1 Chronicles 2:21 Meaning and Commentary

1 Chronicles 2:21

And afterward Hezron went in to the daughter of Machir the
father of Gilead
Which Machir was the son of Manasseh, and Gilead was his grandson, ( Numbers 26:29 ) the Targum is,

``but he enticed a virgin, the daughter of Machir;''

which suggests, that he committed fornication with her, though he afterwards married her; her name is not mentioned; to me it seems to be Abiah, ( 1 Chronicles 2:24 ) and whom the Targum there calls the daughter of Machir:

whom he married when he was sixty years old;
the Targum is sixty six; this seems to be his last wife:

and she bare him Segub;
the same name with the youngest son of Hiel, who rebuilt Jericho, ( 1 Kings 16:34 ) .

1 Chronicles 2:21 In-Context

19 When Azubah died, Caleb married Ephrath. They had a son named Hur,
20 who was the father of Uri, who was the father of Bezalel.
21 Later, when Hezron was sixty years old, he married the daughter of Makir, Gilead's father. Hezron had sexual relations with Makir's daughter, and she had a son named Segub.
22 Segub was the father of Jair. Jair controlled twenty-three cities in the country of Gilead.
23 (But Geshur and Aram captured the Towns of Jair, as well as Kenath and the small towns around it -- sixty towns in all.) All these were descendants of Makir, the father of Gilead.
