1. Chronik 7:14

And the sons of Ulam: Bedan,.... See Sa1 12:11. these were the sons of Gilead, the son of Machir, the son of Manasseh; that is, were of his posterity, or belonged to his family; for Ulam and Rakem were sons of a brother of Gilead, Ch1 7:16.

In this chapter we have some account of the genealogies, I. Of Issachar (Ch1 7:1-5). II. Of Benjamin (Ch1 7:6-12). III. Of Naphtali (Ch1 7:13). IV. Of Manasseh (Ch1 7:14-19). V. Of Ephraim (Ch1 7:20-29). VI. Of Asher (Ch1 7:30-40). Here is no account either of Zebulun or Dan. Why they only should be omitted we can assign no reason; only it is the disgrace of the tribe of Dan that idolatry began in that colony of the Danites which fixed in Laish, and called Dan, and there one of the golden calves was set up by Jeroboam. Dan is omitted, Rev. 7.

7:14-19 Several difficulties in these verses might indicate that the Hebrew text was damaged: (1) Maacah is listed as the sister of Makir as well as his wife (7:15-16). (2) Huppim and Shuppim were listed earlier with Benjamin (7:12), not Manasseh. (3) Those considered Gileadites (7:16-17) are rather ambiguously linked to Gilead, whose direct descendants are not listed (cp. Num 26:30-33). (4) The sons of Shemida are not connected to the genealogy (1 Chr 7:19); Shemida was one of Gilead’s descendants (Num 26:32).
