The Hezronite clan is part of the tribe of Judah, which holds significant importance in biblical history as the tribe from which King David and ultimately Jesus Christ descended. The mention of Hezron here emphasizes the continuity and growth of the tribe of Judah, which was prophesied to hold the scepter and produce the Messiah (<a href="/genesis/49-10.htm">Genesis 49:10</a>). The Hezronites, as descendants of Judah, are part of the fulfillment of God's promise to Abraham regarding his descendants being numerous and significant in the history of Israel.<p><b>and the Carmite clan from Carmi</b><br>Carmi is listed as a son of Reuben, the firstborn of Jacob. The Carmite clan, therefore, belongs to the tribe of Reuben. Reuben's tribe, although the firstborn, did not receive the preeminence due to Reuben's sin against his father (<a href="/genesis/49-3.htm">Genesis 49:3-4</a>). The mention of the Carmite clan highlights the diversity within the tribes of Israel and the fulfillment of God's promise to multiply the descendants of Jacob. The tribe of Reuben settled on the east side of the Jordan River, and their history is marked by both faithfulness and failure, reflecting the broader narrative of Israel's relationship with God.<div class="vheading2">Persons / Places / Events</div>1. <b><a href="/topical/h/hezron.htm">Hezron</a></b><br>Hezron is a descendant of Judah, one of the twelve tribes of Israel.
