1 Chronicles
1 Chronicles 5:11–17
11The descendants of Gad lived next to the Reubenites in the land of Bashan, as far as Salecah:
12Joel 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. 15Ahi son of Abdiel, the son of Guni, was head of their family.
16They lived in Gilead, in Bashan and its towns, and throughout the pasturelands of Sharon. 17All of them were recorded in the genealogies during the reigns of Jotham king of Judah and Jeroboam king of Israel.
