Pulpit Commentary

Pulpit CommentaryVerse 16. - Shebuel (comp. 1 Chronicles 24:20, where the name appears as Shubael; and 1 Chron 26:24).

Ellicott's Commentary

Ellicott's Commentary for English Readers(16) The sons of Gershom, Shebuel was the chief (Heb., head).--The statement that "Shebuel was the chief" implies that Gershom had other sons not mentioned here, as being reckoned members of the clan the sons of Gershom. Shebuel is called Shubael in 1Chronicles 24:20.
