The passage is probably repeated here in ler to serve as an introduction to the story of the death of Saul.<\/p>\n An almost exact repetition of 1Ch 8:29-38<\/span>; and probably intentionally made by the author. In order to connect the genealogical section of his work with the historical, he re-introduces the genealogy of the person with whose death his historical section opens.<\/P> <\/p>\n 1Ch 9:35-44<\/span><\/p>\n And in Gibeon dwelt the father of Gibeon.<\/em><\/p>\n<\/p>\n Pedigree of Saul<\/strong><\/p>\n In the choice, anointing, and pedigree of Saul, which enter into the history of Israel, notice–<\/p>\n 1. <\/strong>The condescension of God.<\/p>\n 2. <\/strong>The sovereignty of God.<\/p>\n 3. <\/strong>The providence of God. (J. Wolfendale.<\/em>)<\/p>\n<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Verse 35. Whose wife’s name was Maachah<\/B><\/I>] Here our translators have departed from the original, for the word is achotho<\/I>, his SISTER; but the Vulgate, Septuagint, Syriac, Arabic<\/I>, and Chaldee<\/I>, have WIFE; to which may be added 1Ch 8:29<\/span>, the parallel place. Almost all the early editions, as well as the MS. editions, have the same reading. Of all the Polyglots<\/I> the Complutensian<\/I> alone has ishto<\/I>, his WIFE. His wife<\/I> is the reading also of Vatablus’s Polyglot, but in the margin he observes that other copies have his<\/I> sister<\/I>. There is most certainly a fault<\/I> somewhere, for Maachah<\/I> could not be both the sister<\/I> and wife<\/I> of Jehiel<\/I>. Whether, therefore, 1Ch 8:29<\/span> has been altered from this<\/I>, or this altered from that<\/I>, who can tell? A single letter<\/I> makes the whole difference: if the word be written with cheth<\/I>, it is SISTER; if with shin<\/I>, it is WIFE. The latter is most probably the true reading. It is so in three very ancient MSS. in my own possession.<\/P> <\/p>\n In this and the following verses to the end of this chapter he repeats what he said before, 1Ch 8:29<\/span>, &c., concerning Sauls genealogy, that he might make way for the following history; which is a figure called epanalepsis<\/I>, which is frequent both in sacred and profane writers. <\/P> <\/p>\n Ver. 35-44. And in Gibeon dwelt the father of Gibeon<\/strong>,…. Whose name is here mentioned, which is not in 1Ch 8:29<\/span>. Jehiel,<\/p>\n whose wife’s name was Maachah<\/strong>; as there, but here called his sister, as a wife sometimes is, Ge 20:2<\/span>. From hence to the end of the chapter is a repetition of the ancestors and posterity of Saul king of Israel; which is made to lead on to and connect the following history of the kings of Judah, begun in this book, and carried on in the next unto the Babylonish captivity, see 1Ch 8:29<\/span>, and the notes there.<\/p>\n The family of King Saul<\/em>. – This register has already occurred in 1Ch 8:29-38<\/span>, along with those of other families of the tribe of Benjamin, and is repeated here only to connect the following history of the kingship with the preceding genealogical lists. It forms here the introduction to the narrative of Saul’s death in 1Ch 10:1-14<\/span>, which in turn forms the transition to the kingship of David. The deviations of this register from that in 1Ch 8:29-38<\/span>, show that it has been derived from another document in more complete preservation than that in 1 Chron 8, which had been handed down in connection with other genealogies of the Benjamite families, and had suffered considerably in its text.

We take the repetition as we find it; but if we admit that there are in the originals, especially in these books, some errors of the transcribers, I should be tempted to think this repetition arose from a blunder. Some one, in copying out these genealogies, having written those words, v.<\/I><\/span> 34<\/span> (These dwelt in Jerusalem<\/I>), cast his eye on the same words, ch.<\/I><\/span> viii. 28<\/span>. (These dwelt in Jerusalem<\/I>), and so went on with what followed there, instead of going on with what followed here; and, when he perceived his mistake, was loth to make a blot in his book, and so let it stand. We have a rule in our law, Redundans non nocet<\/I>—Redundancies do no harm.<\/I><\/P><\/p>\n 1Ch 8:29<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n Lessons to be noted: 1) the Lord is able to turn worldly talents to spiritual good; 2) the results of sin reach far and last long; 3) God’s people should keep their vows made in His name; 4) it is a blessing to be associated close to the work of the Lord and to participate in it.<\/p>\n Author’s Note: The remaining commentary [for users of the Hardbound Commentary 1st Edition] on the Books of Chronicles will be found in the commentary on the Books of Samuel and Kings. These remaining chapters are often parallel and always contemporary to the events of Samuel and Kings. It was thought best to discuss these comparatively. (JWG)<\/p>\n 17.

This information (1Ch. 9:35-44<\/span>) is pertinent at this time because it provides an introduction to a review of Sauls final conflict with the Philistines in chapter 10.<\/p>\n (35-44) A duplicate of 1Ch. 8:29-38<\/span>. The genealogy of Saul seems to be repeated, according to the chroniclers habit (comp. 1Ch. 6:4<\/span> et seq.<\/em> with 1Ch. 6:50<\/span> et seq.;<\/em> 1Ch. 7:6<\/span> et seq.<\/em> with 1Ch. 8:1<\/span> et seq.<\/em>),<\/em> as a transition or introduction to something else, viz., the account of that kings final ruin in 1 Chronicles 10<\/span>. The present list is identical with the former, so far as it extends (1Ch. 8:39-40<\/span> is wanting here), but is, on the whole, in better preservation, supplying, as we have seen, several omissions in the other copy. Only the name of Ahaz has fallen out (1Ch. 9:41<\/span>). The correspondence of the two lists appears to be too exact to justify an assumption of different original sources; but the chronicler may have found the repetition already existing in the principal document from which he drew his materials.<\/p>\n 35-44<\/strong>. <\/strong> This register is substantially identical with that of 1Ch 8:29-38<\/span>, and is repeated here to form a transition to the account of Saul’s death, which the writer inserts, in chap. x, as an introduction to the history of David’s reign. Keil thinks the two documents were derived from different sources, and thus accounts for their slight differences; while others think the differences have arisen from corruptions in the text, and in some cases, perhaps, by design of the compiler himself.<\/p>\n It is remarkable that these verses should be again inserted in this place, since we had them before in the preceding Chapter, from verse 29 to 38 (1Ch 8:29-38<\/span> ). There it finished with the register of Benjamin, and here it is introductory to what follows, in the history of Saul.<\/p>\n 1Ch 9:35 And in Gibeon dwelt the father of Gibeon, Jehiel, whose wife’s name [was] Maachah:<\/p>\n Ver. 35. Saul’s race is here reiterated for some unknown cause, saith Diodate; for a preparation to the ensuing history, say others.<\/p>\n in Gibeon dwelt. Verses 35-44 are an abridgment of 1Ch 8:29-38.

Had another name, “Zoror”, in 1Sa 9:1. See note on 1Ch 8:33. 1Ch 8:39 Ner begat Kish. See note on 1Ch 8:33. <\/p>\n 1ch 9:35-44<\/p>\n 1Ch 9:35-44<\/p>\n “And in Gibeon there dwelt the father of Gibeon, Jeiel, whose wife was Maacah; and his first-born son Abdon, and Zur, and Kish, and Baal, and Ner, and Nadab, and Gedor, and Ahio, and Zechariah, and Mikloth. And Mikloth begat Shimeam. And they also dwelt with their brethren in Jerusalem, over against their brethren. And Ner begat Kish, and Kish begat Saul; and Saul begat Jonathan, and Malcashua, and Abinadab, and Eshbaal. And the son of Jonathan was Meribbaal; and Meribbaal begat Micah. And the sons of Micah: Pithon, and Melech, and Tahrea, and Ahaz. And Ahaz begot Jarah; and Jarah begat Alemeth, and Azmaveth, and Zimri; and Zimri begat Moza; and Moza begat Benia; and Rephaiah his son, Eleasah his son, and Azel his son. And Azel had six sons, whose names are these: Azrikam, Bocheru, and Ishmael, and Sheriah, and Obadiah, and Hanan: these were the sons of Azel.”<\/p>\n 1Ch 9:35-44 is a duplicate of 1Ch 8:29-38. Twelve generations of King Saul are listed here; and the reason for their being repeated would appear to be that they are an appropriate background for the record of the death of Saul, related in the very next chapter.<\/p>\n This brings us to the end of these amazing genealogies. Unbelieving scholars have leveled all kinds of critical allegations against these records; but the truth is that not any of them has been able to shed any light whatever upon these records.<\/p>\n “These genealogies are the skeletal framework of the entire O.T. They bind the whole book together and afford the most convincing demonstration that the O.T. is genuine history as contrasted with myth or legend.”<\/p>\n “This chapter has a list of the post-exilic inhabitants of Jerusalem, to which has been appended a list of the ancestors of king Saul as a fitting introduction to the story of Saul which immediately follows.” J. Barton Payne sharply disagreed with Dentan’s statement here, affirming that, “This chapter enumerates the inhabitants of Jerusalem prior to the city’s capture and the removal of its people to Babylon.” This writer believes that Payne’s opinion is the more trustworthy. The principal support of Dentan’s view comes, “From an emendation that changes the meaning of verse 2 in this chapter.” It is a weakness of the RSV that it follows that change of the sacred text without adequate authority.<\/p>\n The truly significant fact that comes to light here is that with the records before the Chronicler (whom we believe to have been Ezra) as revealed in this chapter, “It was possible for Ezra to restore the legitimate theocracy in Jerusalem after their return from Babylon.”[5] This may have resulted from the detailed account in this chapter of the various services and responsibilities of the Levites.<\/p>\n These nine chapters, composed principally of genealogical tables, must, without doubt, be among the most neglected chapters in the Bible.<\/p>\n E.M.
