Notes

  • This chapter provides the genealogies of the remaining tribes of Israel.

  • The sections on the tribes of Issachar, Benjamin, and Asher may come from a military census. These lists are almost the same length, use military terms, record the father's houses, and do not mention settlements.

  • The tribes of Zebulun and Dan are completely omitted, and Naphtali has only a short record.
