Genesis
46:15 ) ; Aben Ezra thinks he had two sons, and that one of
them was dead, and therefore not mentioned; but the other way
best accounts for the expression; though, as Schmidt observes,
the plural may be indefinitely put, and the sense be this, as for
the sons of Dan, there was only one, whose name was Hushim. Dan
was a son of Jacob by Bilhah, Rachel's maid, as the following was
another.
