Context of 1 Chronicles 5:12
10During the days of Saul they waged war against the Hagrites, who were defeated at their hands, and they occupied the dwellings of the Hagrites throughout the region east of Gilead. 11The descendants of Gad lived next to the Reubenites in the land of Bashan, as far as Salecah: Joel was the chief, Shapham the second, then Jaanai and Shaphat, who lived in Bashan. 13Their kinsmen by families were Michael, Meshullam, Sheba, Jorai, Jacan, Zia, and Eber—seven in all. 14These were the sons of Abihail son of Huri, the son of Jaroah, the son of Gilead, the son of Michael, the son of Jeshishai, the son of Jahdo, the son of Buz.
