1 And Benjamin fathered his first-born, Bela; Ashbel, the second; and Aharah, the third; 2 Nohah, the fourth; and Rapha, the fifth. 3 And sons were born to Bela: Addar, and Gera, and Abihud, 4 and Abishua, and Naaman, and Ahoah, 5 and Gera, and Shephuphan, and Huram. 6 And these are the sons of Ehud; these are they, the heads of the fathers to the dwellers of Geba; and they exiled them to Manahath. 7 And Naaman, and Ahiah, and Gera, he exiled them. And Ehud fathered Uzza and Ahihud. 8 And Shaharaim fathered sons in the country of Moab after he had sent them away. Hushim and Baara were his wives. 9 And by his wife Hodesh were Jobab, and Zibia, and Mesha, and Malcham, 10 and Jeuz, and Shachia, and Mirma. These were his sons, heads of the fathers.

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 six hundredth year of Noah's life, in the second month, in the seventeenth day of the month, in this day all the fountains of the great deep were risen, and the windows of the heavens were opened up.
Genesis 7:24
And the waters prevailed over the earth a hundred and fifty days.

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.
