1 Chronicles 1:46 NIV,NKJV

G. Campbell Morgan's Exposition on the Whole Bible - 1 Chronicles 1:1-54

The two Books of Chronicles cover the period of history already studied in I and II Kings. They record this history, however, from an entirely different standpoint. The outlook is almost exclusively confined to Judah, the chronicler never referring to Israel save in cases of absolute necessity. Moreover, the history of the tribe of Judah is the history of the house of David, all other matters being referred to only as they affect, or are affected by, the Davidic line. Moreover, the story of... read more

Preacher's Complete Homiletical Commentary - 1 Chronicles 1:1-54

CRITICAL NOTES.] The writer gives no explanation or introduction, presumes upon the knowledge of the reader, and simply enumerates names from Creation to the Flood, contained in Genesis 5:0. The Deluge, 1,656 years from the creation of Adam.1 Chronicles 1:1-4.—These names embrace Genesis 1-9, which the reader is presumed to know. This furnishes a principle of interpretation to other parts of the book. The Hebrew pointing will often account for the orthography of the names.1 Chronicles... read more

Chuck Smith Bible Commentary - 1 Chronicles 1:1-54

Shall we turn now to First Chronicles, chapter one, and let's see what. You know, we used to say to our kids they could get juice out of anything when they ate.

Sutcliffe's Commentary on the Old and New Testaments - 1 Chronicles 1:1-54

1 Chronicles 1:1-4 . Adam Noah. Noah was the tenth from Adam. Sanchoniatho, the Phœnician historian, makes Noah to be the eighth. He calls these patriarchs by different names, which probably were the titles they assumed after some action accounted illustrious. We may here recite the substance of Genesis 11:0., on which biblical critics are generally agreed. Gomer father of the Gomerians Magog father of the Scythians Madai father of the Medes Juvan father of the Ionians Tubal father of the... read more

The Biblical Illustrator - 1 Chronicles 1:1-54

1 Chronicles 1:1-54Adam, Sheth, Enosh.Israelite descentIsrael was Jehovah’s chosen people, His son, to whom special privileges were guaranteed by solemn covenant. A man’s claim to share in this covenant depended on his genuine Israelite descent, and the proof of such descent was an authentic genealogy. In these chapters the chronicler has taken infinite pains to collect pedigrees from all available sources and to construct a complete set of genealogies exhibiting the lines of descent of the... read more
