Verse 52
And Shobal, the father of Kirjathjearim had sons ,.... Which shows that Kirjathjearim is not the name of a man, or of any of Shobal's sons, who are next mentioned, but of a place of which he was prince: the first is
Haroeh , who is called Reaiah, 1 Chronicles 4:2 a word of the same signification:
and half of the Manahethites ; which Kimchi takes to be the proper name of a man called Chatzihamanaheth, another son of Shobal's; but Jarchi interprets it of the name of a place or province called Manahath, 1 Chronicles 8:6 over half of which Haroeh was governor.
