whose sister's name was Maachah
He married into the tribe of Benjamin, a sister of the persons mentioned, ( 1 Chronicles 7:12 ) whose name was Maachah:

and the name of the second was Zelophehad;
the second son of Manasseh, or of his posterity mentioned; for he was not his immediate son; for he was the son of Hepher, the son of Gilead, the son of Machir, the son of Manasseh, ( Numbers 27:1 )
