Divrey Hayamim Alef 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.
