Judah’s Family

³ Judah’s sons were Er, Onan, and Shelah. A Canaanite woman, ·the daughter of Shua [or Bath-shua], was their mother. Judah’s ·first son [firstborn], Er, did ·what the Lord said was wicked [^Levil in the Lord’s sight/eyes], so the Lord ·put him to death [killed him]. ⁴ Judah’s daughter-in-law Tamar gave birth to Perez and Zerah, giving Judah five sons in all [Gen. 38].

⁵ Perez’s sons were Hezron and Hamul.

⁶ Zerah had five sons: Zimri, Ethan, Heman, Calcol, and ·Darda [or Dara; 1 Kin. 4:31].

⁷ Carmi’s son was ·Achan [or Achar; ^C“disaster”; Josh. 7:1], ·who caused trouble for [the troubler of] Israel because he ·took [stole] ·things [plunder] that had been ·given to the Lord to be destroyed [set apart/devoted to the Lord; Josh. 7:16–26].

⁸ Ethan’s son was Azariah.

⁹ Hezron’s sons were Jerahmeel, Ram, and ·Caleb [Chelubai; v. 18].
