1 CHRONICLES 9:38 — KING JAMES VERSION 0 0
“And Mikloth begat Shimeam. And they also dwelt with their brethren at Jerusalem, over against their brethren.”
The genealogical continuation demonstrates the transmission of family names and genealogical consciousness across generations, with the reiteration of genealogical information indicating its theological and historical importance. The repeated genealogical documentation indicates the multiple sources available to the Chronicler and the careful verification of genealogical records. The enumeration of Jeiel's lineage twice (in ch. 8 and here in ch. 9) demonstrates the theological importance of genealogical accuracy. The careful repetition of genealogical information emphasizes the Chronicler's commitment to precise historical documentation. The double recording of genealogical information contributes to the comprehensive genealogical portrait of Benjamin and validates the genealogical records used by the Chronicler.
