Ver. 35-37. These are the sons of Ephrain, after their families,…. Which were but three, the Shuthalhite, the Bachrite, and the Tahanite, only from the former sprung another family, called the Eranite; the number of the whole was 32,500; there was a decrease in this tribe of 8000.

Verses 35-37:

The census numbered the men of Ephraim at 32,500. This number is a decline of 8,000 from the 40,500 of the earlier census.

This text shows four families of the sons of Ephraim, one of these a grandson. The genealogy of 1Ch 7:21 lists two other sons who were slain by the man of Gath. A third, Beriah, was the ancestor of Joshua. No mention is made of a family founded by him.
