Contextual Overview

5 Ruben the firstborn of Israel. His sons were Henoch, of whom is the family of the Henochites: and Phallu, of whom is the family of the Phalluites: 6 And Hesron, of whom is the family of the Hesronites: and Charmi, of whom is the family of the Charmites. 7 These are the families of the stock of Ruben: whose number was found to be forty-three thousand seven hundred and thirty. 8 The son of Phallu was Eliab. 9 His sons, were Namuel and Dathan and Abiron. These are Dathan and Abiron the princes of the people, that rose against Moses and Aaron in the sedition of Core, when they rebelled against the Lord: 10 And the earth opening her mouth swallowed up Core, many others dying, when the fire burned two hundred and fifty men. And there was a great miracle wrought, 11 That when Core perished, his sons did not perish. 12 The sons of Simeon by their kindreds: Namuel, of him is the family of the Namuelites: Jamin, of him is the family of the Jaminites: Jachim, of him is the family of the Jachimites: 13 Zare, of him is the family of the Zarites: Saul, of him is the family of the Saulites. 14 These are the families of the stock of Simeon, of which the whole number was twenty-two thousand two hundred.
