Commentary— Tyndale Open Study Notes (plain English)
7:1-40 In this chapter, the genealogies of the remaining tribes of Israel are given. • The sections on the tribes of Issachar, Benjamin, and Asher might have been derived from a military census; the lists are of nearly equal length, emphasize military terminology, record the father’s houses, and provide no information on settlements. • The tribes of Zebulun and Dan are omitted entirely, and Naphtali has a very brief record.
