1. Chronik 7:18

And when he went in to his wife,.... After his grief and sorrow in part at least had subsided: she conceived and bare a son; which in some measure made up for the loss he had sustained: and he called his name Beriah; which signifies being "in evil" or calamity, he being born in an evil time: because it went evil with his house; or evil was in his house, as Noldius (m), in his family; a great calamity had befallen it. (m) Ebr. Concord. Part. No. 750. p. 165.

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.
