Pulpit Commentary
Pulpit CommentaryVerse 7. - And the sons of Bela. The first and last of the five (descendants or heads of families) here given, viz. Ezbon and Iri, are not found in previous places among Benjamite families, but are found (Genesis 46:16; Numbers 26:16) among Gadite families. It would seem that by David's time they had become in some aspects ranked among the Benjamites, though not originally of them.
Ellicott's Commentary
Ellicott's Commentary for English Readers(7) And the sons of Bela.--The names are wholly different in 1Chronicles 8:3-4. The reason would seem to be that the names before us represent the chieftains and clans of Bela as they existed at a given epoch, viz., the time of David's census. The list of 1 Chronicles 8 belongs to another period. Here, as elsewhere, it is evident enough that the chronicler has faithfully followed or rather transcribed his sources, without a thought of harmonising their apparent inconsistencies.Heads of . . . fathers.--Rather, heads of their father-houses, i.e., chieftains.And were reckoned by their genealogies.--And their census was 22,034. This number represents the fighting strength of the Belaites,. who are here identified with their heads.
