Contextual Overview

1 Benjamin was the father of Bela, his firstborn; Ashbel was born second, Aharah third, 2 Nohah fourth, and Rapha fifth. 3 Bela's sons were Addar, Gera, Abihud, 4 Abishua, Naaman, Ahoah, 5 Gera, Shephuphan, and Huram. 6 These were the descendants of Ehud who were leaders of the families living in Geba who were forced to move to Manahath: 7 Naaman, Ahijah, and Gera, who moved them. Gera was the father of Uzzah and Ahihud. 8 Shaharaim fathered sons in Moab after he divorced his wives Hushim and Baara. 9 By his wife Hodesh he fathered Jobab, Zibia, Mesha, Malkam, 10 Jeuz, Sakia, and Mirmah. These were his sons; they were family leaders.

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, on the seventeenth day of the month—on that day all the fountains of the great deep burst open and the floodgates of the heavens were opened.
Genesis 7:24
The waters prevailed over the earth for 150 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.
