1 Chronicles 12:20 Meaning and Commentary

1 Chronicles 12:20

As he went to Ziklag, there fell to him of Manasseh
Others besides the former, who joined him when he went with the Philistines; these joined him when he was dismissed from them, and was returning to Ziklag: namely,

Adnah, and Jozabad, and Jediael, and Michael, and Jozabad, and Elihu,
and Zilthai, captains of the thousands that were of Manasseh;
that tribe being, as the rest were, divided into hundreds and thousands; these were captains over the thousands of the militia of the tribe.

19 porro de Manasse transfugerunt ad David quando veniebat cum Philisthim adversum Saul ut pugnaret et non dimicavit cum eis quia inito consilio remiserunt eum principes Philisthinorum dicentes periculo capitis nostri revertetur ad dominum suum Saul
