Commentary

Notes on 1 Chronicles 1:12 from classic Christian and Jewish commentators (each source and its license shown beneath its notes). The classic Christian expositions comment on the surrounding passage and are grouped to its opening verse, so a note may address several verses; the Jewish commentaries on the Tanakh (Rashi and others) are per-verse, so they appear only where the commentator wrote on this verse.

Jamieson, Fausset & Brown

Robert Jamieson, A. R. Fausset & David Brown

Casluhim (of whom came the Philistines), and Caphtorim--a better rendering is, "and Casluhim, of whom came the Philistim and Caphtorim." They were brethren, the sons of Casluhim, and at first dwelt together, whence their names are used interchangeably. The Caphtorim are described as inhabiting Azzah, or Gaza, the seat of the Philistines.

of whom came the Philistines] R.V. from whence. Elsewhere (Jer_47:4; Amo_9:7; cp. Deu_2:23) the Philistines are said to have come from Caphtor; and it is possible that this clause has been misplaced and that it should follow Caphtorim.

Caphthorim] R.V. Caphtorim. Perhaps Crete is meant by Caphtor, and the inhabitants of Crete by Caphtorim, but nothing is certainly known of either word.

Discussion questions

  1. The word Pathruçîy carries the sense “Pathrusim.” How does it shape the verse?
  2. How does Genesis 10:14, which shares the word «Pathrusim», read alongside this verse?
  3. These translations render this verse differently; the difference is in the English rendering, not the original. What questions does that raise?
  4. «יָצְא֥וּ» is a Qal Perfect verb. How does that grammatical form shape the action described?
  5. Compare how Jamieson, Fausset & Brown and Adam Clarke's Commentary read this verse. Where do they agree or differ?
