The sonnes of Simeon] Genesis 46:10. & Exodus 6:15. there are sixe sonnes of Simeon number; but in this place, as also 1 Chron. 4. 24. onely five are named, for Obed the sixth is omitted, whereof the reason was, because he died without issue; and so having no family there was no need to name him here, having no portion in the Land of Canaan.
