Cross-References
This is the family history of Shem, Ham, and Japheth, the sons of Noah. After the flood these three men had sons.
The sons of Ham were Cush, Mizraim, Put, and Canaan.
He was a great hunter before the Lord , which is why people say someone is "like Nimrod, a great hunter before the Lord ."
Gill's Notes on the Bible
And when Samuel had caused all the tribes to come near,.... The heads and representatives of them, to the place where the lots were cast:
the tribe of Benjamin was taken; the lot fell upon that tribe for the choice of a king out of it; not the tribe of, Reuben, who was the firstborn, nor the tribe of Judah, to whom the kingdom was promised, but the tribe of Benjamin, the least of all the tribes, and which sprung from the youngest son of Jacob, contrary, as it were probable, to the expectation of all.
Barnes' Notes on the Bible
Caused ... to come near ... was taken - The Hebrew phrases are exactly the same as in Joshua 7:16-17, where the King James Version renders the first has “brought.”
