Contextual Overview
1These were the sons of Reuben the firstborn of Israel. He was the firstborn, but his birthright was given to the sons of Joseph son of Israel, because Reuben defiled his father’s bed. He is not listed in the genealogy according to birthright. 2Although Judah became strong among his brothers and a ruler came from him, the birthright was given to Joseph. 3The sons of Reuben, Israel’s firstborn: 4Joel’s sons: his son Shemaiah,5his son Micah, his son Reaiah, 6and his son Beerah. 7His relatives by their families as they are recorded in their family records: 8and Bela son of Azaz, 9They also settled in the east as far as the edge of the desert that extends to the Euphrates River, because their herds had increased in the land of Gilead. 10During Saul’s reign they waged war against the Hagrites, who were defeated by their power. And they lived in their tents throughout the region east of Gilead.

Gill's Notes on the Bible
Ver. 4,5. The sons of Joel,.... Who was either the son of Carmi last mentioned, or rather of Hanoch, Reuben's firstborn, since the descendants of him were the princes of the tribe: his posterity in succession were, Shemaiah, Cog, Shimei, Micah, Reaia, Baal, Beerah; of whom we know no more than their names, and by these the descent is carried down to the captivity by Tiglathpileser, as follows.
Barnes' Notes on the Bible
The sons of Joel - The line of succession here given must be broken by one great gap or several smaller ones, since nine generations before Tiglath-pileser would carry us back no further than the reign of Rehoboam.
