1 Chronicles 4:42 Meaning and Commentary

1 Chronicles 4:42

And some of them, even of the sons of Simeon, five hundred
men went to Mount Seir
In the land of Edom:

having for their captains Pelatiah, and Neariah, and Rephaiah, and
Uzziel, the sons of Ishi;
these four captains are said, by the ancient Rabbins, to be of the tribe of Manasseh, as Kimchi observes; see ( 1 Chronicles 5:24 ) but as the five hundred they were at the head of were of the sons of Simeon, the captains, no doubt, were of the same race.

1 Chronicles 4:42 In-Context

40 where they found rich, good pasture, and the land was very broad, quiet, and peaceful; for the former inhabitants there belonged to Ham.
41 These, registered by name, came in the days of King Hezekiah of Judah, and attacked their tents and the Meunim who were found there, and exterminated them to this day, and settled in their place, because there was pasture there for their flocks.
42 And some of them, five hundred men of the Simeonites, went to Mount Seir, having as their leaders Pelatiah, Neariah, Rephaiah, and Uzziel, sons of Ishi;
43 they destroyed the remnant of the Amalekites that had escaped, and they have lived there to this day.
