EXPLANATION

Verse 18. Sale. The Rom. Septuagint omits verse 11 to 17, and verse 18 to 24, having only, (17) “The sons of Sem, Ailam and Assur; (24) and Arphaxad, Sala.” Bible.—But the other copies here insert Cainan, as the father of Sale. See Genesis 10:24. Calmet.—It is a matter of great doubt whether he ought not to be inserted. Lu. 3. Bible.
