Commentary

Notes on 1 Chronicles 1:15 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.

15. the Hivite] In Jos_11:3, the Hivites are placed in the extreme N. of the land, “the Hivite under Hermon” (Heb. not LXX.). The Arkite and Sinite lived in Lebanon, the Arvadite (cp. Eze_27:8) on the sea-coast N. of Gebal (Byblus), the Zemarite a little to the S. of the Arvadite, and the Hamathite furthest to the north on the Orontes.

Discussion questions

  1. What does “Arkite” (ʻArqîy) contribute to the verse as a whole?
  2. Genesis 10:17 shares the word «Arkite» with this verse. How do the two illuminate each other?
  3. These translations render this verse differently; the difference is in the English rendering, not the original. What questions does that raise?
