1 Chronicles 4:24
"The sons of Simeon were, Nemuel, and Jamin, Jarib, Zerah, and Shaul:"

Commentary

Gill's Exposition

The sons of Simeon,.... The account of whom, next to the tribe of Judah, is given before Reuben, because its inheritance lay in the tribe of Judah, Jos 19:1 his

sons were Nemuel, the same with Jemuel, Gen 46:10 . and Jamin, Jarib, Zerah, and Shaul; who, in the place referred to, is said to be the son of a Canaanitish woman; and Jarib and Zerah are the same with Jachin and Zohar there: and Obed is here omitted, it may be because he died without issue; see Num 26:12 .
