Commentary

4 notes on this verse
The writer refers here to two registrations, one made under the authority of Jeroboam II when he was king and Israel flourishing, the other made under the authority of Jotham, king of Judah, during the troublous time which followed on the great invasion of Tiglath-pileser. There is nothing surprising in a king of Judah having exercised a species of lordship over the trans-Jordanic territory at this period.

This site's exposition

The descendants of Gad lived next to the Reubenites

on 1 Chronicles 5:11-17

Gad settled in Bashan, and verse 17 says the line was reckoned during the reigns of Jotham king of Judah and Jeroboam king of Israel. Barnes reads the double dating as a sign that Judah still held some claim over the tribes east of the Jordan after the kingdom split.

This site's exposition

All of them were reckoned

Jeroboam here is Jeroboam son of Joash, who ruled Israel at its height in the eighth century (2 Kings 14:23 to 29). Jotham ruled Judah a little later (2 Kings 15:32 to 38). Barnes reads two separate registrations, one under each king.
