They appear to have been one of the most wealthy 1Ch 5:21<\/span> and widely-spread tribes of the Syrian Desert, being found on the side of the Euphrates in contact with the Assyrians, and also in the Hauran, in the neighborhood of Palestine, in contact with the Moabites and Israelites. If identical with the Agraei of the Classical writers, their name may be considered as still surviving in that of the district called Hejer or Hejera in northeastern Arabia, on the borders of the Persian Gulf. A full account of the war is given in 1Ch 5:18-22<\/span>.<\/P> <\/p>\n Verse 10<\/span>. And they dwelt in their tents<\/B><\/I>] The Hagarites<\/I> were tribes of Nomade<\/I>, or Scenite<\/I>, Arabs; people who lived in tents<\/I>, without any fixed dwellings, and whose property consisted in cattle<\/I>. The descendants of Reuben extirpated these Hagarites, seized on their property and their tents, and dwelt in their place.<\/P> <\/p>\n They made war; <\/B>the Gadites and Manassites joining with them in the war, 1Ch 5:18<\/span>,19<\/span>. <\/P> With the Hagarites; <\/B>the Ishmeelites, who dwelt in Arabia the Desert. <\/P> They dwelt in their tents; <\/B>the Israelites took possession of their lands, and tents or houses. <\/P> Throughout all the east land of Gilead; <\/B>which lay eastward from the land of Gilead. <\/P> <\/p>\n And in the days of Saul they made war with the Hagarites<\/strong>,…. Not with the Hungarians, as the Targum, a people not then in being; but the Ishmaelites, so called because they descended from Hagar s, Sarah’s maid; the same that are placed by Pliny t and Ptolemy u in Arabia, near the Batanaeans, or inhabitants of Bashan; with those the Reubenites made war, in conjunction with the Gadites and half tribe of Manasseh, 1Ch 5:18<\/span>, perhaps this war might be much about the time Saul relieved Jabeshgilead, and beat the Ammonites, 1Sa 11:1<\/span> by which the tribes on that side Jordan might be encouraged to it:<\/p>\n who fell by their hand<\/strong>; were worsted and conquered by them:<\/p>\n and they dwelt in their tents<\/strong>; in which the Arabians used to dwell, because of their flocks; hence some of them were called Scenites:<\/p>\n throughout all the east [land] of Gilead<\/strong>; or rather throughout all the land of the Hagarites, which lay to the east of Gilead, as the Vulgate Latin version; or otherwise the land of Gilead itself was their original possession.<\/p>\n s So David de Pomis, Lexic. fol. 45. 4. t Nat. Hist. l. 6. c. 28. u Geograph. l. 5. c. 19.<\/p>\n “In the days of Saul they made war upon the Hagarites, and they fill into their hands, and they dwelt in their tents over the whole east side of Gilead.” The subject is not determined, so that the words may be referred either to the whole tribe of Reuben or to the family of Bela (1Ch 5:8<\/span>). The circumstance that in 1Ch 5:8<\/span> and 1Ch 5:9<\/span> Bela is spoken of in the singular ( and ), while here the plural is used in reference to the war, is not sufficient to show that the words do not refer to Bela’s family, for the narrative has already fallen into the plural in the last clause of 1Ch 5:9<\/span>. We therefore think it better to refer 1Ch 5:10<\/span> to the family of Bela, seeing that the wide spread of this family, which is mentioned in 1Ch 5:9<\/span>, as far as the desert to the east of the inhabited land, presupposes the driving out of the Hagarites dwelling on the eastern plain of Gilead. The notice of this war, moreover, is clearly inserted here for the purpose of explaining the wide spread of the Belaites even to the Euphrates desert, and there is nothing which can be adduced against that reference. The in 1Ch 5:7<\/span> does not, as Bertheau thinks probable, denote that Bela was a contemporary of Beerah, even if the circumstance that from Bela to Joel only three generations are enumerated, could be reconciled with this supposition. The spread of Bela’s family over the whole of the Reubenite Gilead, which has just been narrated, proves decisively that they were not contemporaries. If Bela lived at the time of the invasion of Gilead by Tiglath-pileser, when the prince Beerah was carried away into exile, it is certainly possible that he might have escaped the Assyrians; but he could neither have had at that time a family “which inhabited all the east land,” nor could he himself have extended his domain from “Aroer and Nebo towards the wilderness,” as the words , 1Ch 5:8<\/span>, distinctly state. We therefore hold that Bela was much older than Beerah, for he is introduced as a great-grandson of Joel, so that his family might have been as widely distributed as 1Ch 5:8<\/span>, 1Ch 5:9<\/span> state, and have undertaken and carried out the war of conquest against the Hagarites, referred to in 1Ch 5:10<\/span>, as early as the time of Saul. Thus, too, we can most easily explain the fact that Bela and his brothers Jeiel and Zechariah are not mentioned. As to , cf. on 1Ch 5:19<\/span>.<\/p>\n (10) And in the days of Saul they made war with the Hagarites.<\/strong>The great extension of the tribe in an easterly direction took place in the reign of Saul, the first king of Israel. Bela and his clan victoriously fought with the Hagarites (Heb., Hagriim<\/em>) or Hagarenes (see Psa. 83:7<\/span>, Hagrim<\/em>),<\/em> that is, the sons of Hagar,<\/em> for possession of the pasture-grounds east of Gilead. This Arab nation is mentioned in the Assyrian inscriptions. (The LXX. has , i.e., haggrm, u<\/em> sojourners, nomads.)<\/p>\n They dwelt in their tents.<\/strong>This phrase first occurs in Gen. 9:27<\/span>. The Belaites occupied the territory of the Hagarites.<\/p>\n Throughout all the east land of Gilead.<\/strong>Rather, on the whole eastern side<\/em> or border of Gilead.<\/em> This includes the new settlements of Bela beyond the border.<\/p>\n 10<\/strong>. <\/strong> The Hagarites <\/strong> The same as the Ishmaelites, <\/em> who were all descended from Hagar, Sarah’s Egyptian hand-maid, and were scattered over the vast deserts between Egypt and Assyria. See on Gen 25:12-18<\/span>. In this Hagarite war, the Reubenites were assisted by the Gadites and the half tribe of Manasseh. See 1Ch 5:18-22<\/span>.<\/p>\n 1Ch 5:10 And in the days of Saul they made war with the Hagarites, who fell by their hand: and they dwelt in their tents throughout all the east [land] of Gilead.<\/p>\n Ver. 10. They made war with the Hagarites,<\/strong> ] i.e., <\/em> Ishmaelites inhabiting Arabia deserta.<\/em> These, ashamed of their mother Hagar the handmaid, would afterwards need for honour’s sake be called Saracens, by the name of Sarah the mistress, as saith Sozomen. a<\/em> This so pleased the rest of the Arabians, that they would all be called Saracens. Mohammed their general grew famous in the days of Heraclius the emperor, and subdued many countries. Now they are called Turks, &c. <\/p>\n <\/p>\n And they dwelt in their tents.<\/strong> ] Few countries but have changed their inhabitants: such is the vanity of all here below.
