And Heshbon with her suburbs, and Jazer with her suburbs.
1 Chronicles 6:81 belongs to the lists and genealogies of the various tribes found in the first nine chapters of Chronicles, which are made up of minutes of events, lists of names, and similar material. Those lists give special attention to the house of Judah and to the priesthood. As part of the record of names and places in Chronicles, the verse helps preserve the history of God's people and the integrity of Israel's tribes.
The verse is one of over five hundred verses in twelve chapters of 1 Chronicles that consist of nearly all names. It is not an expressed precious promise to God's people, which shows that every verse in the Bible is not a promise. With more than fifteen hundred verses of names in Scripture, the total number of verses that could be counted as promises is reduced.
