1 Chronicles 7:14

John Gill - Exposition - John Gill

Read in KJV Bible Reader

The sons of Manasseh; Ashriel, whom she bare,.... The wife of Manasseh, as distinguished from his concubine in the next clause; though the Targum reads, in connection with that,

"whom his Aramitess (or Syrian) concubine bare;''

and then adds,

who also bare Machir the father of Gilead; so that Ashriel and Machir were brethren; from which Ashriel sprung the family of the Ashrielites, Numbers 26:29 as from Machir the Machirites, Numbers 26:29.
