1 Chronicles 7:26

Ephraim's genealogy carries the chapter's one full narrative scene: Ezer and Elead killed raiding cattle from the men of Gath, and their father Ephraim mourning many days before naming the son born after, Beriah, because it went evil with his house, a family tragedy recorded nowhere else in Scripture. Wesley notes the ancient Hebrew writers preserved the same event outside the biblical text, while Jamieson Fausset and Brown read the Gittites as the aggressors rather than Ephraim's sons. The line then runs unbroken to Nun and Jehoshua, so Joshua's own ancestry stands inside this list, and his sister Sherah earns a rare mention for building both Beth-horons and a city named for herself.
