Verse 21

And afterward Hezron went in to the daughter of Machir the father of Gilead ,.... Which Machir was the son of Manasseh, and Gilead was his grandson, Numbers 26:29 the Targum is,"but he enticed a virgin, the daughter of Machir;'which suggests, that he committed fornication with her, though he afterwards married her; her name is not mentioned; to me it seems to be Abiah, 1 Chronicles 2:24 and whom the Targum there calls the daughter of Machir:

whom he married when he was sixty years old ; the Targum is sixty six; this seems to be his last wife:

and she bare him Segub ; the same name with the youngest son of Hiel, who rebuilt Jericho, 1 Kings 16:34 .
