1 Chronicles 9:36 belongs to the genealogical records in Chronicles that preserve the family descent and individual records of Israel. After the exile those records were needed to establish hereditary claims to land ownership and to duties in temple service. Their careful preservation illustrates the preservation of the records of God's children and the integrity of the tribes. The genealogy of Judah was preserved with special care because Christ came through that tribe. The genealogies show that God is particular, teaching that a faithful record of every soul is kept in heaven. No further explanation of the individual names in this verse is given.
