Jeuz
The name "Jeuz" is of Hebrew origin, and while its exact meaning is not definitively known, it is often associated with the idea of gathering or assembling. In the context of 1 Chronicles, Jeuz is listed as a descendant of Benjamin, one of the twelve tribes of Israel. This highlights the importance of family lineage and the role of each individual in the broader narrative of God's chosen people. The mention of Jeuz serves as a reminder of the significance of each person in God's plan, no matter how briefly they are mentioned in the biblical text.

Sachia
The name "Sachia" is another Hebrew name, and like many names in the Bible, it carries a meaning that reflects character or destiny. Although the specific meaning of Sachia is not clear, the inclusion of his name in the genealogical record underscores the value placed on heritage and the continuity of God's promises through generations. It invites readers to consider the legacy they are building and how their lives contribute to the unfolding account of faith.

Mirmah
The name "Mirmah" can be translated to mean "deceit" or "fraud" in Hebrew. This name might seem unusual in a list of family heads, but it serves as a poignant reminder of the complexities of human nature and the presence of imperfection even among God's people. It calls believers to reflect on their own lives, acknowledging their shortcomings while striving for integrity and righteousness in their walk with God.

These were his sons
This phrase emphasizes the familial relationship and the continuation of the family line. In the ancient Near Eastern context, sons were often seen as carriers of the family name and legacy. This highlights the importance of family in God's design and the role of each generation in upholding and passing down the faith. It encourages believers to invest in their families, nurturing them in the ways of the Lord.

heads of their families
The term "heads" signifies leadership and responsibility. In the biblical context, being the head of a family meant guiding, protecting, and providing for one's household. This phrase underscores the biblical principle of stewardship, where individuals are called to lead with wisdom and godliness. It serves as an inspiration for believers to take seriously their roles as leaders in their families and communities, seeking to honor God in all their endeavors.

(10) Heads of the fathers.--See Note on 1Chronicles 8:6.
