Ellicott's Commentary

Ellicott's Commentary for English Readers(24) The fifth lot . . . for . . . Asher . . . (and Joshua 19:32) the sixth . . . for . . . Naphtali.--Asher and Naphtali had been associated with Dan in the exodus, and with him had encamped on the north side of the tabernacle, and had brought up the rear. These two, each dissociated from his own brother (viz., Asher from Gad and Naphtali from Dan), are paired together in their inheritance in Palestine (comp. Naphtali and Manasseh in Revelation 7, and see Names on the Gates of Pearl, pp. 199, 200). The tribe of Asher was more akin to the house of Judah, for Zilpah, the mother of Asher, was Leah's handmaid; and the tribe of to the house of Joseph, for Bilhah, Naphtali's mother, was Rachel's handmaid. But in all cases the lot of the inheritance of the tribe seems to have fallen in such a way as to favour the construction of a united Israel--a Dodecaphulon, to use St. Paul's word--an organised body of twelve tribes.Parallel Commentaries ...HebrewThe fifthהַֽחֲמִישִׁ֔י (ha·ḥă·mî·šî)Article | Number - ordinal masculine singularStrong's 2549: Fifth, a fifthlotהַגּוֹרָ֣ל (hag·gō·w·rāl)Article | Noun - masculine singularStrong's 1486: Lot -- a lot (for casting)came outוַיֵּצֵא֙ (way·yê·ṣê)Conjunctive waw | Verb - Qal - Consecutive imperfect - third person masculine singularStrong's 3318: To go, bring, out, direct and proximfor the clansלְמִשְׁפְּחוֹתָֽם׃ (lə·miš·pə·ḥō·w·ṯām)Preposition-l | Noun - feminine plural construct | third person masculine pluralStrong's 4940: A family, circle of relatives, a class, a species, sort, a tribe, peopleof the tribeלְמַטֵּ֥ה (lə·maṭ·ṭêh)Preposition-l | Noun - masculine singular constructStrong's 4294: A staff, rod, shaft, branch, a tribeof Asher:אָשֵׁ֖ר (’ā·šêr)Noun - proper - masculine singularStrong's 836: Asher -- 'happy one', a son of Jacob, also the tribe descended from him, also perhaps a city in PalestineJump to PreviousAsher Children Clan Heritage Lot Tribe
