1 Chronicles 12:14

12:14 These Gadites were military leaders; the least led a hundred men, the greatest a thousand.

1 Chronicles 27:22

27:22 Azarel son of Jeroham led Dan.

These were the commanders of the Israelite tribes.


tn Heb “one for a hundred the small, and the great for a thousand.” Another option is to translate the preposition -לְ (lamed) as “against” and to understand this as a hyperbolic reference to their prowess: “the least could stand against a hundred, the greatest against a thousand.”
