Bible Verse Review
  from Treasury of Scripure Knowledge

Addar: The variation in this name is occasioned simply by the transposition of a ד, daleth and ר, raish; being in the parallel passage ארד [Strong's H714], Ard, and here אדר [Strong's H146], Addar. Genesis 46:21, Numbers 26:40, Ard

Cross-References

Genesis 7:11
In the sixe hundredth yeere of Noahs life, in the second moneth, the seuenteenth day of the moneth, the same day, were al the fountaines of the great deepe broken vp, and the windowes of heauen were opened.
Genesis 7:24
And the waters preuailed vpon the earth, an hundred and fifty dayes.

Gill's Notes on the Bible

The sons of Bela were Addar, and Gera, and Abihud. The first of these is thought to be the same with Ard, mentioned among the sons of Benjamin, Genesis 46:21 but was one of his grandsons, see Numbers 26:40 as Gera also was.
