1 Chronicles 5 (성경통독): This chapter shows an overview of Jacob's sons. Though Reuben was Israel’s firstborn, after he slept with his father’s concubine, a defiling act, his rights as the firstborn were passed on to the sons of Joseph son of Israel. He lost his “firstborn” place in the family tree. And even though Judah became the strongest of his brothers and King David eventually came from that family, the firstborn rights stayed with Joseph. It goes on talking about the families of Reuben, Gad, and the half-tribe of Manasseh. They fought against the Hagrites, Jetur, Naphish, and Nodab. God helped them as they fought. ut they were not faithful to the God of their ancestors. They took up with the ungodly gods of the peoples of the land whom God had gotten rid of before they arrived. So the God of Israel stirred up the spirit of Pul king of Assyria (Tiglath-Pileser king of Assyria) to take the families of Reuben, Gad, and the half-tribe of Manasseh into exile. So God continuously sent those who sinned against Him into exile.
