1 Chronicles 8:29

1 Chronicles 8:29 says, And at Gibeon dwelt the father of Gibeon; whose wife's name was Maachah:  These next several verses are still a continuation of the listing of the descendants of Benjamin.  Verse thirty adds, And his firstborn son Abdon, and Zur, and Kish, and Baal, and Nadab,  Verse thirty-one continues, And Gedor, and Ahio, and Zacher.  Verse thirty-two concludes, And Mikloth begat Shimeah. And these also dwelt with their brethren in Jerusalem, over against them.  These people also lived near Jerusalem.  Verse thirty-three states, And Ner begat Kish, and Kish begat Saul, and Saul begat Jonathan, and Malchishua, and Abinadab, and Eshbaal.  Out of this tribe also came Saul, the first king of Israel, and his descendants, who didn't follow him as kings.  Just because our parents were leaders in the church doesn't mean we will be or that we have any special rights.  Verse thirty-four adds, And the son of Jonathan was Meribbaal; and Meribbaal begat Micah.  Jonathan was the only one of Saul's sons to have descendants, and that was because of David's friendship with him.  Verse thirty-five continues, And the sons of Micah were, Pithon, and Melech, and Tarea, and Ahaz.  Verse thirty-six says, And Ahaz begat Jehoadah; and Jehoadah begat Alemeth, and Azmaveth, and Zimri; and Zimri begat Moza,  Verse thirty-seven adds, And Moza begat Binea: Rapha was his son, Eleasah his son, Azel his son:  Verse thirty-eight continues, And Azel had six sons, whose names are these, Azrikam, Bocheru, and Ishmael, and Sheariah, and Obadiah, and Hanan. All these were the sons of Azel.  Verse thirty-nine states, And the sons of Eshek his brother were, Ulam his firstborn, Jehush the second, and Eliphelet the third.  Verse forty adds, And the sons of Ulam were mighty men of valour, archers, and had many sons, and sons' sons, an hundred and fifty. All these are of the sons of Benjamin.  It is noted that Ulam had sons who were mighty men of valor, and they had even more sons, a hundred and fifty in all.  We need our children to be people of valor for God today, and we need to hope that the children of God multiply.  This concluded the listing of Benjamin's descendants.
