1 Chronicles 4:8 Meaning and Commentary

1 Chronicles 4:8

And Coz
Another son of Helah, and brother of the before mentioned:

begat Anub, and Zobebah;
of whom we nowhere else read:

and the families of Aharhel, the son of Harum;
these were of the posterity of Coz; the Targum is,

``and the family of Aharhel, this is Hur, the firstborn of Miriam;''

which is not at all probable.

1 Chronicles 4:8 In-Context

6 Naarah gave birth to Ahuzzam, Hepher, Temeni, and Haahashtari. These were Naarah's sons.

7 Helah's sons were Zereth, Izohar, and Ethnan.

8 Koz was the father of Anub and Zobebah, and he was the ancestor of the families of Aharhel, son of Harum.

9 Jabez was more honorable than his brothers. His mother had named him Jabez [Painful], because she said that his birth was painful.

10 Jabez prayed to the God of Israel, "Please bless me and give me more territory. May your power be with me and free me from evil so that I will not be in pain." God gave him what he prayed for.
