1 Chronicles 1:14-17

_ _ the Jebusite, etc. — At 1 Chronicles 1:14-17 the names are not those of individuals, but of people who all sprang from Canaan; and as several of them became extinct or were amalgamated with their brethren, their national appellations are given instead of the personal names of their ancestors.

_ _ Uz, and Hul, and Gether, and Meshech — or, “Mash”; these were the children of Aram, and grandsons of Shem (Genesis 10:23).

Matthew Henry's Commentary

See commentary on 1 Chronicles 1:1-27.

John Wesley's Explanatory Notes

The sons — Either the name of sons is so taken here as to include grandsons, or, these words, the children of Aram, are understood before Uz, out of Genesis 10:23, where they are expressed.
