Exegetical and Hermeneutical Commentary of 1 Chronicles 27:22
Of Dan, Azareel the son of Jeroham. These [were] the princes of the tribes of Israel.
Of the most of the tribes, not of all; for Gad is omitted, probably because that tribe was joined with the Reubenites under one prince; and Asher, for some such reason, or for some other causes now unknown, and not worth our inquiry.

(22) Of Dan.Dan and Zebulun, omitted in the tribal registers of 1 Chronicles 4-7, are both mentioned in the present list. On the other hand, Gad and Asher are unnoticed here; why, we cannot say. The totaltwelveis made by counting Manasseh as two and Joseph as three tribes. The order of the first six names is that of Gen. 35:23. Why Dan is mentioned last is not clear: some have thought it indicates the chroniclers reprobation of the idolatry of the tribe (1Ki. 12:29-30; comp. Jdg. 18:30; Amo. 8:14); but he has probably kept the order of his source.
These were the princes.The same word as captains in the former list (srm).
