Keil & Delitzsch, on 1Chr 2:45

Keil & Delitzsch · 1861–1875
1Chr 2:45 · Douay-Rheims
“The son of Sammai, Maon: and Maon the father of Bethsur.”
On this verse:
“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, Ch1 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, Ch1 8:6 over half of which Haroeh was governor.”
