1 Chronicles 5

The genealogies continue, focusing on the two-and-a-half tribes that settled east of the Jordan River: Reuben, Gad, and the half-tribe of Manasseh. The chapter notes that the birthright of Reuben (the firstborn) was given to the sons of Joseph because Reuben defiled his father's bed. The text describes how these tribes were eventually carried into Assyrian captivity due to their unfaithfulness and their practice of worshiping the gods of the local peoples they failed to destroy.
