Commentary

3 notes on this verse

This site's exposition

Now the first to resettle their own property

on 1 Chronicles 9:2-9

The list sorts by class: Israelites, priests, Levites, and temple servants. The same four groups reappear at Nehemiah 11:3 to 19, and Barnes reads both writers as drawing on one fuller document. Gill notes that verse 3 has descendants of Judah, Benjamin, Ephraim, and Manasseh living together in Jerusalem.

This site's exposition

Ibneiah son of Jeroham

Ibneiah, Elah and a second Meshullam are named beside Sallu as Benjamite heads. Nehemiah 11:8 names Gabbai and Sallai at this point, so the two lists chose different men. Barnes holds that both writers selected from a fuller record.

The record, by era

The Puritans and the Awakening1 voice

And Ibneiah the son of Jeroham,.... Who with two more, Elah and Meshullam, whose ancestors are given, of whom we have no mention elsewhere, were all of the tribe of Benjamin, said to settle at Jerusalem.
