1 Chronicles 5:19 Meaning and Commentary

1 Chronicles 5:19

And they made war with the Hagarites
Before mentioned, ( 1 Chronicles 5:19 )

with Jetur, and Nephish:
with the posterity of these men, who were sons of Ishmael, ( Genesis 25:15 ) and so was Nodab; perhaps the same with Kedemah, mentioned along with the other two there; so Hillerus ^F26 thinks.

1 Chronicles 5:19 In-Context

17 (These records were compiled in the days of King Jotham of Judah and King Jeroboam II of Israel.)

18 In the tribes of Reuben, Gad, and East Manasseh there were 44,760 soldiers, well-trained in the use of shields, swords, and bows.

19 They went to war against the Hagrite tribes of Jetur, Naphish, and Nodab.

20 They put their trust in God and prayed to him for help, and God answered their prayers and made them victorious over the Hagrites and their allies.

21 They captured from the enemy 50,000 camels, 250,000 sheep, and 2,000 donkeys, and took 100,000 prisoners of war.
