Footnotes
- 1 Chronicles 7:11 That is, grandsons
- 1 Chronicles 7:12 Verse 12 is difficult. The -im ending usually indicates a group of people, not the name of a person, but in Genesis 46:21 Muppim and Huppim are sons of Benjamin. In Genesis 46:23 Hushim is a son of Dan. The list for Dan may be folded into the list for Benjamin. See also verse 15.
