8<\/strong>. And Coz<\/em> ] R.V. And Hakkoz<\/strong> as in 1Ch 24:10<\/span>, but there a different person (or family) is meant. The connexion of this verse with the preceding does not appear, and the names given are not otherwise known.<\/p>\n Verse 8<\/span>. The son of Harum.<\/B><\/I>] Jabez<\/I> should be mentioned at the end of this verse, else he is as a consequent<\/I> without an antecedent<\/I>.<\/P> <\/p>\n And Coz<\/strong>,…. Another son of Helah, and brother of the before mentioned:<\/p>\n begat Anub, and Zobebah<\/strong>; of whom we nowhere else read:<\/p>\n and the families of Aharhel, the son of Harum<\/strong>; these were of the posterity of Coz; the Targum is,<\/p>\n “and the family of Aharhel, this is Hur, the firstborn of Miriam;”<\/p>\n which is not at all probable.<\/p>\n 1Ch 4:8-10<\/span> contain a fragment, the connection of which with the sons of Judah mentioned in 1 Chron 2 is not clear. Coz begat Anub, etc. The name occurs only here; elsewhere only is found, of a Levite, 1Ch 24:10<\/span>, cf. Ezr 2:61<\/span> and Neh 3:4<\/span> – in the latter passage without any statement as to the tribe to which the sons of Hakkoz belonged. The names of the sons begotten by Coz, 1Ch 4:8<\/span>, do not occur elsewhere. The same is to be said of Jabez, of whom we know nothing beyond what is communicated in 1Ch 4:9<\/span> and 1Ch 4:10<\/span>. The word denotes in 1Ch 2:55<\/span> a town or village which is quite unknown to us; but whether our Jabez were father (lord) of this town cannot be determined. If there be any genealogical connection between the man Jabez and the locality of this name or its inhabitants (1Ch 2:55<\/span>), then the persons named in 1Ch 4:8<\/span> would belong to the descendants of Shobal. For although the connection of Jabez with Coz and his sons is not clearly set forth, yet it may be conjectured from the statements as to Jabez being connected with the preceding by the words, “Jabez was more honoured than his brethren.” The older commentators have thence drawn the conclusion that Jabez was a son or brother of Coz. Bertheau also rightly remarks: “The statements that he was more honoured than his brethren (cf. Gen 34:19<\/span>), that his mother called him Jabez because she had borne him with sorrow; the use of the similarly sounding word along with the name (cf. Gen 4:25<\/span>; Gen 19:37<\/span>., Gen 29:32-33<\/span>, Gen 29:35<\/span>; Gen 30:6<\/span>, Gen 30:8<\/span>, etc.); and the statement that Jabez vowed to the God of Israel (cf. Gen 33:20<\/span>) in a prayer (cf. Gen 28:20<\/span>), – all bring to our recollection similar statements of Genesis, and doubtless rest upon primeval tradition.” In the terms of the vow, , “so that sorrow may not be to me,” there is a play upon the name Jabez. But of the vow itself only the conditions proposed by the maker of the vow are communicated: “If Thou wilt bless me, and enlarge my coast, and Thy hand shall be with me, and Thou wilt keep evil far off, not to bring sorrow to me,” – without the conclusion, Then I vow to do this or that (cf. Gen 28:20<\/span>.), but with the remark that God granted him that which he requested. The reason of this is probably that the vow had acquired importance sufficient to make it worthy of being handed down only from God’s having so fulfilled his wish, that his life became a contradiction of his name; the son of sorrow having been free from pain in life, and having attained to greater happiness and reputation than his brothers.<\/p>\n (8) Coz begat Anub.<\/strong>Coz<\/strong> (thorn<\/em>) is unknown.<\/p>\n Anub.<\/strong>LXX., . Comp. Anb, (Jos. 11:21<\/span>; Jos. 15:50<\/span>), a town in the hill-country near Debir (Kirjathsepher). The word appears to mean grape-town so that Coz begat Anub reminds us of Mat. 7:16<\/span>. Comp. Isa. 5:6<\/span>; Isa. 7:23<\/span>.<\/p>\n Zobebah.<\/strong>Heb., ha-zobebah,<\/em> she that goeth (or<\/em> floweth) softly. Perhaps so called from a neighbouring brook. Comp. Isa. 8:6<\/span>.<\/p>\n The families of Aharhel the son of Harum.<\/strong>The word Aharhel signifies behind the rampart; Harum, the elevated. Perhaps Harum ( ) was the citadel of the clans of Aharhel. Notice the expression, Coz begat the clans of Aharhel son of Harum, which is hardly intelligible if taken literally.<\/p>\n (910) And Jabez was more honourable than his brethren.<\/strong>Jabez (Heb., Ia<\/em>b<\/em>) was a town of Judah (1Ch. 2:55<\/span>), inhabited by certain clans of Sopherim, of the lineage of Salma son of Hur (1Ch. 2:50<\/span>; 1Ch. 2:54-55<\/span>). This is important, as giving a clue to the connection here, which is by no means clear upon the surface. It seems to prove that 1Ch. 4:8-10<\/span> are to be regarded as part of the list which begins at 1Ch. 4:5<\/span> : we may thus fairly assume, although the chronicler does not expressly state it, that 1Ch. 4:8<\/span> also concerns some clans of the Hurites (or Ash-hurites). Coz is not put into genealogical connection with the other Hurite houses; but it is reasonable to suppose that at the date of the present list the name was well known among the Hurites. And Coz may have fallen out of the Heb. text, as the same expression follows immediately (1Ch. 4:8<\/span>).<\/p>\n 1Ch 4:8 And Coz begat Anub, and Zobebah, and the families of Aharhel the son of Harum.<\/p>\n Ver. 8. And Coz begat Anub.<\/strong> ] Who this Coz was, we read not anywhere: Videntur lacunae quaedam esse in hoc capite.<\/em> Some think he was one of the sons of Ashur by his wife Helah: though he be not reckoned with the rest. 1Ch 4:7 <\/p>\n Probably Jabez should be mentioned here; as otherwise he is as a consequent without an antecedent.<\/p>\n And Coz begot Anub, and Zobebah, and the families of Aharhel the son of Harum. 8. And Coz ] R.V. And Hakkoz as in 1Ch 24:10, but there a different person (or family) is meant.
