1 Chronicles 9:4 Summary
This verse tells us about a man named Uthai, who was a descendant of Perez, one of the twin sons of Judah. Uthai's family tree is important because it shows how God kept His promises to the Israelites, just like He promised to Abraham in Genesis 12:1-3. As we read about Uthai and his family, we can remember that God is always faithful to His people, and that He often uses ordinary people to do extraordinary things, as seen in 1 Corinthians 1:26-31. By trusting in God's faithfulness, we can have confidence in His plan for our lives, just like Uthai's ancestors did.
Frequently Asked Questions
What is the significance of the genealogy listed in 1 Chronicles 9:4?
The genealogy listed in 1 Chronicles 9:4 is significant because it establishes the lineage of Uthai, a descendant of Perez son of Judah, and demonstrates God's faithfulness to His people, as seen in Genesis 28:15 and Deuteronomy 31:6.
Why is Uthai's family tree so important?
Uthai's family tree is important because it connects him to the tribe of Judah, from which Jesus Christ would later come, as prophesied in Genesis 49:10 and fulfilled in Matthew 1:1-17.
What can we learn from the fact that Uthai is a descendant of Perez?
The fact that Uthai is a descendant of Perez, who was a twin son of Judah, reminds us that God often uses unexpected people and circumstances to fulfill His plans, as seen in Genesis 38:27-30 and Romans 8:28.
How does this verse relate to the broader context of 1 Chronicles?
This verse is part of a larger section in 1 Chronicles that lists the genealogies of various Israelite families, highlighting God's covenant faithfulness and setting the stage for the reign of King David, as seen in 1 Chronicles 10:1-14 and 1 Samuel 16:1-13.
Reflection Questions
- What does Uthai's family tree reveal about God's faithfulness to His people?
- How does Uthai's connection to the tribe of Judah point to the coming Messiah?
- What can I learn from the fact that Uthai is a descendant of Perez, a twin son of Judah?
- In what ways can I trust God's sovereignty in my own life, just as Uthai's ancestors did?
Gill's Exposition on 1 Chronicles 9:4
Uthai, the son of Ammihud,.... Called Athaiah, Ne 11:4 though his ancestors there are differently reckoned here; his genealogy here is traced from his father Ammihud, through Omri, Imri, Bani, Pharez, to Judah.
Jamieson-Fausset-Brown on 1 Chronicles 9:4
And in Jerusalem dwelt of the children of Judah, and of the children of Benjamin, and of the children of Ephraim, and Manasseh; No JFB commentary on these verses.
Matthew Poole's Commentary on 1 Chronicles 9:4
That there is so great a diversity of names between this catalogue and that Ne 11, may be ascribed to two causes: 1. To the custom of the Hebrews, who used very frequently to give two or three several names to one person; and, 2. To the change of times; for here they are named who came up at the first return; but many of those in Nehemiah might be such as returned afterward, and came and dwelt either instead of the persons here named, who might be then dead, or gone from Jerusalem, or with them.
Trapp's Commentary on 1 Chronicles 9:4
1 Chronicles 9:4 Uthai the son of Ammihud, the son of Omri, the son of Imri, the son of Bani, of the children of Pharez the son of Judah.Ver. 4. Uthai, &c.] See the same catalogue in Nehemiah 11:4-36, though with some alteration of names, as before often.
Ellicott's Commentary on 1 Chronicles 9:4
(4) Uthai the son of Ammihud, the son of Omri, the son of Imri, the son of Bani.—Nehemiah 11:4 traces this line thus: “Athaiah son of Uzjiah, son of Zechariah, son of Amariah, son of Shephatiah, son of Mahalaleel, of the children of Perez.” Uthai is equivalent to Athaiah, and Imri to Amariah, by a common contraction. The other intermediate names in the two series do not coincide; but this does not prove that Uthai and Athaiah are different clans. Many more than five or six members would obviously be required to constitute a complete genealogical stem, reaching from post-exilic times to the age of the tribal patriarchs. We may therefore conclude that the compiler has chosen to select different names in each case from a longer list, which comprised both series.
Adam Clarke's Commentary on 1 Chronicles 9:4
Verse 4. Uthai the son of Ammihud] The list here is nearly the same with those found in Ezra and Nehemiah, and contains those who returned to Jerusalem with Zerubbabel; but the list in Nehemiah is more ample, probably because it contains those who came afterwards. The object of the sacred writer here was to give the list of those who came first. Now the first inhabitants, &c.
Cambridge Bible on 1 Chronicles 9:4
4. Uthai] In Neh. Athaiah. The two words are more alike in Heb. than in English and are perhaps to be regarded as various readings of one name. Pharez] R.V. Perez, as in 1 Chronicles 2:4-5 (R.V.); Genesis 38:29 (R.V.); and Nehemiah 11:4 (A.V. also). We have here (1 Chronicles 9:4-6) a threefold division of the tribe of Judah into the descendants of Perez, Shelah, and Zerah, just as in Numbers 26:20.
