The list of genealogies continue in this chapter focusing on the main clans of Judah and Simeon. Initial emphasis was on the descendants of Judah whose prominent descendant was David. Of special note is the honourable Jabez who sought from God his blessing, freedom from harm and pain and increased territory, and God granted his request. The second section of the chapter highlights the descendants of Simeon and their territory in south Canaan within Judah.
