1 Chronicles 5:26

1 Chronicles 5:26

24 These were the heads of their fathers’ houses: Epher, Ishi, Eliel, Azriel, Jeremiah, Hodaviah, and Jahdiel. They were mighty men of valor, famous men, and heads of their fathers’ houses.

25 And they were unfaithful to the God of their fathers, and ^aplayed the harlot after the gods of the peoples of the land, whom God had destroyed before them.

26 So the God of Israel stirred up the spirit of ^aPul king of Assyria, that is, ^bTiglath-Pileser king of Assyria. He carried the Reubenites, the Gadites, and the half-tribe of Manasseh into captivity. He took them to ^cHalah, Habor, Hara, and the river of Gozan to this day.

the God of Israel stirred up the spirit of Pul—the Phalluka of the Ninevite monuments (see on II Kings 15:19).

and the spirit of Tilgath-pilneser—the son of the former. By them the trans-jordanic tribes, including the other half of Manasseh, settled in Galilee, were removed to Upper Media. This was the first captivity (II Kings 15:29).
