Gill's Notes on the Bible

And Penuel the father of Gedor,.... The prince of that place, according to some, and the same with Hareph, 1 Chronicles 2:51,

and Ezer the father of Hushah: thought to be the same with Shuah, 1 Chronicles 4:11,

these are the sons of Hur, the firstborn of Ephratah: Caleb's wife, 1 Chronicles 2:19 the Targum adds, the same with Miriam; and so other Jewish writers x say, Miriam had two names, and one was Ephratah; though Josephus makes y Hur to be her husband, and not her son, as here:

who was the father of Bethlehem; of the inhabitants of that city, at least part of them, or prince of that place, as his grandson Salma also was, 1 Chronicles 2:51.

x Shemot Rabba, sect. 1. fol. 90. 4. Yalkut in 1 Chron. ii. 19. y Antiqu. l. 3. c. 2.
