1 Chronicles 2

Genealogies of Israel trace from **Adam** through the twelve sons of Jacob, focusing extensively on **Judah**'s descendants including **Hezron**, **Caleb**, and **Ram**, listing their clans, settlements, and notable figures like **Jabez** who prayed to YHWH for blessing and enlargement of territory[1][2][3].
