1 Chronicles 27:7

1 Chronicles 27:7 -

With this verse, as Keil observes, the description of the successive courses is given with the greatest brevity. Zebadiah was of Judah. Inasmuch as Asahel ( 1 Chronicles 11:26 ; 2 Samuel 23:24 ) was killed by Abner ( 2 Samuel 2:23 ) before this division of military courses was made, it is evident that his name in this place marks, not the individual, but the family. Possibly he and his name were held in all the greater regard, and his son Zebadiah best known for the sake of his father.
