25 from Simeon, warriors ready for battle-7,100;
25 Of the children of Simeon, mighty men of valour for the war, seven thousand and one hundred.
25 Of the Simeonites, mighty men of valor for war, 7,100.
25 from Simeon, 7,100 stalwart fighters;
25 of the sons of Simeon, mighty men of valor fit for war, seven thousand one hundred;
25 From the tribe of Simeon, there were 7,100 brave warriors.
Matthew Henry's Commentary on 1 Chronicles 12:25
Commentary on 1 Chronicles 12:23-40
(Read 1 Chronicles 12:23-40)
When the throne of Christ is set up in a soul, there is, or ought to be, great joy in that soul; and provision is made, not as here, for a few days, but for the whole life, and for eternity. Happy are those who wisely perceive it to be their duty and interest, to submit to the Saviour Jesus Christ, the Son of David; who renounce for his sake all that is not consistent; whose earnest endeavours to do good are directed by the wisdom that God giveth, through acquaintance with his word, experience, and observation. If any man lack this wisdom, let him ask it of God, who giveth to all men liberally, and upbraideth not, and it shall be given him.
