Barnes' Notes on the Bible

The slight differences favor the view, that the writer of Chronicles has here, as elsewhere, abridged from Genesis (see the marginal references).

Clarke's Notes on the Bible

Verse 1 Chronicles 1:44. Bela was dead — "Being killed by Phineas, in the wilderness." - T.

Jobab the son of Zerah — Supposed by some to be the same as Job, whose book forms a part of the canon of Scripture. But in their names there is no similarity; Job being written איוב aiyob; Jobab, יובב yobab. See the notes on Job, and the parallel place in Genesis.
