Chelub the brother of Shuhah

on 1 Chronicles 4:11-20

This unit gathers several branches of Judah's families, among them the people of Ge-harashim, which was given this name because its people were craftsmen. Verse 18 records a marriage told nowhere else, of an Egyptian princess in Judah's genealogy: These were the children of Pharaoh’s daughter Bithiah.

This site's exposition

The sons of Jehallelel

Jehallelel appears with no stated link to the families before him. Ziph shares its name with the town whose people betrayed David to Saul in 1 Samuel 23:19. The names seem to mark clans of Judah's southern hill country.

The record, by era

The Puritans and the Awakening1 voice

And the sons of Jehaleleel,.... Who probably was the son of Uknaz: Ziph, and Ziphah, Tiria, and Asareel; there were two cities in the tribe of Judah of the name of Ziph, Jos 15:24, which might be called from these men, or from Ziph in 1Ch 2:42.
