1 Chronicles 7:13
11 All these sons of Jediael were heads of their families, mighty men of valor; there were 17,200 fit for battle.
12 The Shuppites and Huppites were descendants of Ir, and the Hushites were descendants of Aher.
The sons of Naphtali: Jahziel, Guni, Jezer, and Shallum —the descendants of Bilhah.
14 The descendants of Manasseh: Through his Aramean concubine, Asriel, as well as Machir the father of Gilead.
15 Machir took a wife from among the Huppites and Shuppites. The name of his sister was Maacah. Another descendant was named Zelophehad, who had only daughters.
Here the Bible tells a story about someone else. Ask yourself what it can say to us today. Do read the surrounding verses too, because the context often says more than a single verse.
