And Chelub the brother of Shuah begat Mehir, etc.] If Shuah is the same with Hushah, (<130404>1 Chronicles 4:4), then Chelub was the son of Ezer: which was the father of Eshton; not the prince of a place called Eshton, as Vatablus; for it is the name of a man, the son of Mehir, and who in the next verse is said to beget sons.
