Among the Hebronites was Jerijah the chief, even among the
Hebronites
The posterity of Hebron, the son of Kohath:
according to the generations of his fathers;
a principal man in the families that descended from his ancestors:
in the fortieth year of the reign of David;
which was the last year of his reign, in which year all the above things were done; the distribution of the priests into their classes and courses, and so of the Levites, singers, and porters; as well as the appointment of those several judges and officers employed in divers parts of the land: and particularly in this year those
Hebronites were sought for, and there were found among them mighty men
of valour, at Jazer of Gilead;
a city on the other side Jordan, which belonged to the tribe of Gad, see ( Numbers 21:32 ) ( Numbers 32:1 Numbers 32:3 Numbers 32:35 ) .
