Matthew Henry's Concise Commentary on the Whole Bible

1 Chronicles Ch.7 / 29 Ch.s


1CH:7

* Genealogies.

- Here is no account either of Zebulun or Dan. We can assign no
reason why they only should be omitted; but it is the disgrace
of the tribe of Dan, that idolatry began in that colony which
fixed in Laish, and called it Dan, #Jud 18| and there one of the
golden calves was set up by Jeroboam. Dan is omitted, #Re 7|.
Men become abominable when they forsake the worship of the true
God, for any creature object.
