Reciprocal: Judges 6:33 - children Psalms 83:6 - Hagarenes

Gill's Notes on the Bible

And they made war with the Hagarites,.... Before mentioned, 1 Chronicles 5:19

with Jetur, and Nephish: with the posterity of these men, who were sons of Ishmael, Genesis 25:15 and so was Nodab; perhaps the same with Kedemah, mentioned along with the other two there; so Hillerus z thinks.

z Onomastic. Sacr. p. 554.

Barnes' Notes on the Bible

Jetur no doubt gave his name to the important tribe of the Ituraeans who inhabited the region southwest of the Damascene plain, between Gaulonitis (Jaulan) and the Ledjah. This tribe was noted for its thievish habits, and was regarded as savage and warlike.

Clarke's Notes on the Bible

Verse 1 Chronicles 5:19. They made war with the Hagarites — This is probably the same war that is mentioned 1 Chronicles 5:10. Those called Hagarites in the text are everywhere denominated by the Targum הונגראיי Hongaraai, Hongarites.
