And Rephah was his son,.... The son of Beriah, whose genealogy from him is traced down to Joshua in this and the two following verses, and stands thus: after Rephah, Resheph, Telah, Tahan, Laadan, Ammihud, Elishama, who was prince of the tribe of Ephraim in the wilderness, Num 1:10, then Non or Nun, whose son was Jehoshua or Joshua.

The descendants of Ephraim

on 1 Chronicles 7:20-27

Ezer and Elead were killed by the natives of Gath, because they went to steal their livestock. Ephraim mourned for many days and named the next son Beriah. Wesley notes Hebrew writers outside Scripture preserved the event, and Jamieson, Fausset and Brown take the natives of Gath as the raiders.

Rephah was his son, Resheph

Gill traces this line from Beriah down to Joshua across verses 25 to 27. It is the fullest ancestry of Joshua in Scripture, which elsewhere names him as the son of Nun. The line spans the years in Egypt.

Second - Of the second son or grandson of Machir; for so Zelophehad was. Had daughters - Only daughters, and no sons. These - Ashriel and Zelophehad, named ver. 14, 15, the relative being here referred to the remoter antecedent; as is frequent in the Hebrew.
