1 Chronicles 12
1. The companies that came to David at Ziklag
23. The armies that came to him at Hebron














(30) Famous throughout the house of their fathers.--Rather, men of name (renown, as in Genesis 6:4), arranged according to their clans. The phrase "men of renown" is a natural addition to "valiant heroes," and need occasion no surprise. Doubtless their renown was collective. The comparative smallness of Ephraim's contingent is noticeable. If this tribe was not already declining within the Mosaic period (comp. Numbers 1:33; Numbers 26:37), it may have been greatly reduced by the last wars of Saul with the Philistines (comp. 2Samuel 2:9).
