1 Chronicles 9:35 Meaning and Commentary

Ver. 35-44. And in Gibeon dwelt the father of Gibeon
Whose name is here mentioned, which is not in ( 1 Chronicles 8:29 ) . Jehiel,

whose wife's name was Maachah;
as there, but here called his sister, as a wife sometimes is, ( Genesis 20:2 Genesis 20:5 ) ( 1 Corinthians 9:5 ) . From hence to the end of the chapter is a repetition of the ancestors and posterity of Saul king of Israel; which is made to lead on to and connect the following history of the kings of Judah, begun in this book, and carried on in the next unto the Babylonish captivity, see ( 1 Chronicles 8:29-40 ) , and the notes there.
