7:14-19 Several difficulties in these verses might indicate that the Hebrew text was damaged: (1) Maacah is listed as the sister of Makir as well as his wife (7:15-16). (2) Huppim and Shuppim were listed earlier with Benjamin (7:12), not Manasseh. (3) Those considered Gileadites (7:16-17) are rather ambiguously linked to Gilead, whose direct descendants are not listed (cp. Num 26:30-33). (4) The sons of Shemida are not connected to the genealogy (1 Chr 7:19); Shemida was one of Gilead’s descendants (Num 26:32).
