Contextual Overview

1 The sons of Judah: Perez, Hezron and Carmi and Hur and Shobal. 2 And Reaiah, the son of Shobal, was the father of Jahath; and Jahath was the father of Ahumai and Lahad. These are the families of the Zorathites. 3 And these were the sons of Hur, the father of Etam: Jezreel and Ishma and Idbash, and the name of their sister was Hazzelelponi; 4 And Penuel, the father of Gedor, and Ezer, the father of Hushah.

These were the sons of Naarah. 7 And the sons of Helah were Zereth, Izhar and Ethnan. 8 And Koz was the father of Anub and Zobebah, and the families of Aharhel the son of Harum. 9 And Jabez was honoured more than his brothers; but his mother had given him the name Jabez, saying, Because I gave birth to him with sorrow. 10 And Jabez made a prayer to the God of Israel, saying, If only you would truly give me a blessing, and make wider the limits of my land, and let your hand be with me, and keep me from evil, so that I may not be troubled by it! And God gave him his desire.

Bible Verse Review
  from Treasury of Scripure Knowledge

Probably Jabez should be mentioned here; as otherwise he is as a consequent without an antecedent.

Gill's Notes on the Bible

And Coz,.... Another son of Helah, and brother of the before mentioned:

begat Anub, and Zobebah; of whom we nowhere else read:

and the families of Aharhel, the son of Harum; these were of the posterity of Coz; the Targum is,

"and the family of Aharhel, this is Hur, the firstborn of Miriam;''

which is not at all probable.

Clarke's Notes on the Bible

Verse 1 Chronicles 4:8. The son of Harum.Jabez should be mentioned at the end of this verse, else he is as a consequent without an antecedent.
