1 Chronicles 5:7
"And his brethren by their families, when the genealogy of their generations was reckoned, were the chief, Jeiel, and Zechariah,"

Commentary

Gill's Exposition

And his brethren by their families,.... Either the brethren of Beerah, or the rest of the posterity of Reuben: (when the genealogy of their generations was reckoned;) either in the

times of Jotham and Jeroboam, Ch1 5:17 or at the time of their captivity, as in the preceding verse: were the chief, Jehiel, and Zechariah; these were the principals or heads of their families.
