Bible Verse Review
  from Treasury of Scripure Knowledge

Haroeh: or, Reaiah, 1 Chronicles 4:2, as Haroeh and Reaiah have nearly the same signification, it is probable they were deemed perfectly interchangeable, and indifferently applied.

half of the Manahethites: or, half of the Menuchites, or, Hatsihammenuchoth.

Reciprocal: 1 Chronicles 2:42 - the father of Hebron 1 Chronicles 8:13 - the fathers

Gill's Notes on the Bible

And Shobal, the father of Kirjathjearim had sons,.... Which shows that Kirjathjearim is not the name of a man, or of any of Shobal's sons, who are next mentioned, but of a place of which he was prince: the first is

Haroeh, who is called Reaiah, 1 Chronicles 4:2 a word of the same signification:

and half of the Manahethites; which Kimchi takes to be the proper name of a man called Chatzihamanaheth, another son of Shobal's; but Jarchi interprets it of the name of a place or province called Manahath, 1 Chronicles 8:6 over half of which Haroeh was governor.

Clarke's Notes on the Bible

Verse 52. Shobal - had sons — "Disciples and priests, to whom belonged the half of the oblations." - T.
