- 1 Chronicles 12:8–12:15
Closes the eleven with Jeremiah and Machbanai. Read 1 Chronicles 12:13 within 12:8–12:15. The complete unit records: Eleven Gadite officers are praised for battlefield capacity and a dangerous first-month river crossing.
Why It Needs Context
Closes the eleven with Jeremiah and Machbanai. Its responsible force depends on 12:8–12:15; isolated from “Gadites cross the flooded Jordan to the wilderness hold,” the supporting action, name, number, object, quotation, or transition could be mistaken for independent teaching.
