Gill's Notes on the Bible
And his daughter was Sherah,.... That is, the daughter of Beriah; not an immediate daughter, but a descendant of his, otherwise she could not have reached the times of Joshua, as she did by what follows:
who built Bethhoron the nether, and the upper; which were cities on the border of the tribe of Ephraim; which the Israelites having taken from the Canaanites, and destroyed, she rebuilt, see Joshua 16:3
and Uzzensherah; which was called after her own name, and to distinguish it from another place called Uzzen; though of neither of them do we read elsewhere.
Barnes' Notes on the Bible
Sherah could scarcely herself have built the Palestinian cities here mentioned, which must belong to a time not earlier than Joshua. By “she built” we must understand “her descendants built.”
Clarke's Notes on the Bible
Verse 1 Chronicles 7:24. His daughter was Sherah — That is, remnant; "called so," says the Targum, "because she was the remnant that escaped from the slaughter mentioned above."
