Pulpit Commentary
Pulpit CommentaryVerse 11. - Translate, Now Heber the Kenite had severed himself from the Kenites, viz., from the sons of Hobab, etc. The Kenites, as we read in Judges 1:16, had settled in the wilderness of Judah, south of Arad, in the time of Joshua. Heber, with a portion of the tribe, had migrated later to Naphtali, probably at the time When the Philistines were pressing hard upon Judah, in the days of Shamgar and Jael (Judges 3:31 and Judges 5:5).
Ellicott's Commentary
Ellicott's Commentary for English Readers(11) Heber the Kenite.--See Judges 1:16; Judges 3:31; Numbers 10:29.Which was of the children of Hobab.--Rather, had separated himself from Kain,from the children of Hobab. Nomadic settlements are constantly liable to send off these separate colonies. The life and movements of the Kenites resembled those of gipsies, except that they had flocks and herds. To this day a small Bedouin settlement presents very nearly the same aspect as a gipsy camp.The father in law of Moses.--Rather, the brother-in-law. The names for these relationships are closely allied. (See Note on Judges 1:16.)Pitched his tent.--(Genesis 12:8, &c.) The "tents" of the Bedouin are not the bell-shaped tents with which we are familiar, but coverings of black goats' hair, sometimes supported on as many as nine poles. The Arab word for tent is beit, "house." . . .
