Commentary on the Whole Bible (1710)

Here is no account either of Zebulun or Dan. Why they only should be omitted we can assign no reason; only it is the disgrace of the tribe of Dan that idolatry began in that colony of the Danites which fixed in Laish, and called Dan, and there one of the golden calves was set up by Jeroboam.

This site's exposition

The children of Asher

on 1 Chronicles 7:30-40

Asher's record runs three generations after Beriah and closes with 26,000 men fit for battle. Verse 40 calls them choice and mighty men of valor, and chiefs among the leaders. Gill points out that Dan and Zebulun get no entry anywhere in this chapter.

This site's exposition

Suah, Harnepher, Shual, Beri, Imrah

Eleven sons of Zophah are named here, and Gill takes Ithran, the next to last, as the Jether whose sons follow in verse 38. The list gives names only; the count comes in verse 40.
