Wesley: 1Ch 7:14 - She

His wife; his concubine is here opposed to her.

JFB: 1Ch 7:14-15 - The sons of Manasseh

Or descendants; for Ashriel was a grandson, and Zelophehad was a generation farther removed in descent (Num 26:33). The text, as it stands, is so confused and complicated that it is exceedingly difficult to trace the genealogical thread, and a great variety of conjectures have been made with a view to clear away the obscurity. The passage [1Ch 7:14-15] should probably be rendered thus: "The sons of Manasseh were Ashriel, whom his Syrian concubine bare to him, and Machir, the father of Gilead (whom his wife bare to him). Machir took for a wife Maachah, sister to Huppim and Shuppim."

TSK: 1Ch 7:14 - The sons // Machir

The sons : The text in these two verses seems to be strangely corrupted; and, as it stands, is scarcely intelligible. Probably it should be rendered, ""The sons of Manasseh were Ashriel, whom his Syrian concubine bore to him; and Machir the father of Gilead, whom (his wife) bore to him. Machir took for a wife Maachah, sister to Huppim and Shuppim.""This is nearly the version of Dr. Geddes.

Machir : 1Ch 2:21-23; Gen 50:23; Num 26:29-34, Num 27:1, Num 32:30-42; Deu 3:13-15; Jos 13:31, Jos 17:1-3; Jdg 5:14

Poole: 1Ch 7:14 - The sons of Manasseh // Whom she bare // whom his concubine the Aramitess bare // The father of Gilead

The sons of Manasseh i.e. grandchildren, as 1Ch 7:13 . For both Ashriel and Zelophehad were the grandchildren of Machir son of Manasseh, Num 26:29 &c.; Num 27:1 .

Whom she bare to wit, his wife, as may be thought, because his concubine is here opposed to her. Or, whom he got ; for the Hebrew word yalad is sometimes used of men’ s begetting, as Gen 5:18 , &c. Compare Psa 2:7 . But these and the following words may be otherwise rendered according to the Hebrew text,

whom his concubine the Aramitess bare who bare him (which ellipses are very frequent in the Hebrew) for meeth, of , or by Machir : so this was a differing Ashriel from him named Num 26:31 ; for that was Gilead’ s son, and this his brother.

The father of Gilead a person so called, as is manifest from 1Ch 7:17 Num 26:29 .

Haydock: 1Ch 7:14 - Son // Galaad

Son. Hebrew, "sons....Ezriel, whom she bare." This seems imperfect. The Hebrews seldom name the mother. (Calmet) ---

Septuagint intimate that the Syrian wife was mother of both. (Haydock) ---

Galaad, whose posterity enjoyed the country of the same name, (Numbers xxii. 29., and xxxii. 41.) only Machir in mentioned as the son of Manasses.

Gill: 1Ch 7:14 - The sons of Manasseh; Ashriel, whom she bare // who also bare Machir the father of Gilead

The sons of Manasseh; Ashriel, whom she bare,.... The wife of Manasseh, as distinguished from his concubine in the next clause; though the Targum reads, in connection with that,"whom his Aramitess (or Syrian) concubine bare;''

and then adds:

who also bare Machir the father of Gilead; so that Ashriel and Machir were brethren; from which Ashriel sprung the family of the Ashrielites, Num 26:29 as from Machir the Machirites, Num 26:29.
