The name itself means "Jehovah raises up," which reflects a common theme in biblical names where God's intervention or blessing is acknowledged. The genealogies in 1 Chronicles serve to establish the continuity of God's people and their heritage, emphasizing the importance of lineage and divine purpose.<p><b>the men of Cozeba</b><br>Cozeba, also known as Chezib or Achzib, is a location in the territory of Judah. It is mentioned in <a href="/genesis/38-5.htm">Genesis 38:5</a> as the place where Judah's wife gave birth to his son Shelah. The men of Cozeba likely refer to a group or clan associated with this area. The mention of Cozeba highlights the geographical spread and influence of the tribe of Judah.<p><b>and Joash and Saraph</b><br>Joash and Saraph are individuals whose specific roles or deeds are not detailed in the biblical text. Their inclusion in the genealogy suggests they were notable figures within their community. The names Joash, meaning "Yahweh has given," and Saraph, meaning "burning" or "fiery," may indicate their character or the circumstances of their lives. The lack of additional information invites speculation about their contributions to their lineage or community.<p><b>who ruled in Moab</b><br>The mention of ruling in Moab indicates a period when members of the tribe of Judah had influence or authority in the region of Moab, east of the Dead Sea. This reflects the historical interactions between Israel and Moab, which were often marked by conflict and cooperation. The presence of Judahites in Moab could suggest trade, intermarriage, or political alliances. Moab's history with Israel is complex, as seen in the story of Ruth, a Moabite who became an ancestor of King David.<p><b>and Jashubi-lehem</b><br>Jashubi-lehem is a location or possibly a clan name, though its exact identification is uncertain. The name could mean "return to Bethlehem," suggesting a connection to the town of Bethlehem in Judah. This connection is significant given Bethlehem's role as the birthplace of King David and later, Jesus Christ. The mention of Jashubi-lehem may underscore the importance of Bethlehem in the heritage of Judah.<p><b>(These names are from ancient records.)</b><br>The reference to ancient records indicates that the chronicler relied on historical documents or oral traditions to compile the genealogies. This underscores the historical reliability and continuity of the biblical narrative. The use of records highlights the importance of preserving family histories and the divine orchestration of events leading to the fulfillment of God's promises to His people.<div class="vheading2">Persons / Places / Events</div>1. <b><a href="/topical/j/jokim.htm">Jokim</a></b><br>A figure mentioned in the genealogies of Judah, though little is known about him beyond this reference.<br><br>2. <b><a href="/topical/c/cozeba.htm">Cozeba</a></b><br>A place or possibly a group of people associated with Jokim.
