Ministry on This Verse

 Quite a number among the people and among the priesthood could not prove their genealogy. Though lacking heads, they could nonetheless be recognized by the names of their families, groups, and cities, which in this way became in essence a "moral person," recognized as the stem of their ancestry (cf. Ezra 1 and here 1 Chron. 2:50,54-55; 4:4). In addition, the great disorder that came in explains, at least in part, why very distant descendants of the head of a clan were considered as his sons. (Judah in Relationship to the Kingship: 1 Chronicles 2 by H.L. Rossier)
 In 1 Chron. 2:50-55, for the third time in this chapter, we meet the descendants of Caleb, the son of Hezron, through Hur, the first-born of Ephratah, a part of whose genealogy has already been given us in 1 Chron. 2:20. (Judah in Relationship to the Kingship: 1 Chronicles 2 by H.L. Rossier)
