from the sons of Joseph
This phrase refers to the descendants of Joseph, one of the twelve sons of Jacob, who was sold into slavery by his brothers but rose to become a powerful leader in Egypt. Joseph's account is one of redemption and divine providence, illustrating how God can turn dire circumstances into blessings. The tribes of Ephraim and Manasseh, Joseph's sons, were given a special status among the tribes of Israel, each receiving a portion of the inheritance, which is a testament to Joseph's faithfulness and God's favor.

from Ephraim
Ephraim was the younger son of Joseph, yet he received the greater blessing from Jacob, as recorded in Genesis 48:19. This act of blessing the younger over the elder is a recurring theme in the Bible, symbolizing God's sovereign choice and the principle that His ways are not bound by human traditions. Ephraim's tribe became one of the most prominent in Israel, often representing the northern kingdom in later biblical history.

Elishama son of Ammihud
Elishama, whose name means "God has heard," was a leader of the tribe of Ephraim. His lineage, "son of Ammihud," connects him to a family of significance within the tribe. The name Elishama reflects a deep-seated belief in a God who listens to His people, a theme that resonates throughout the Scriptures, encouraging believers to trust in God's attentiveness to their prayers.

from Manasseh
Manasseh was the elder son of Joseph, and his name means "causing to forget," as Joseph named him to signify forgetting his troubles and his father's household (Genesis 41:51). The tribe of Manasseh was known for its valor and played a significant role in the conquest of the Promised Land. This highlights the theme of overcoming past hardships and moving forward in God's promises.

Gamaliel son of Pedahzur
Gamaliel, meaning "God is my reward," was a leader of the tribe of Manasseh. His father's name, Pedahzur, means "the rock has redeemed," which underscores the biblical theme of redemption and God's steadfastness. Gamaliel's leadership role signifies the importance of godly leaders who recognize their reward and strength come from the Lord, encouraging believers to seek divine guidance in their own leadership roles.

Verse 10. - Elishama - grandfather of Joshua (1 Chronicles 7:26). All the rest are unnamed elsewhere.
