Title: A Genealogical 'Convention' in Biblical Chronography?
Author: Sasson, Jack M.
Abstract: The purpose of this paper is to focus, once more (l), attention on a genealogical procedure which obtained among Hebrew chronographers(2). Simply stated, this paper will hold that, in some cases, minimal alterations were made in inherited lists of ancestors in order to place individuals deemed worthy of attention in the seventh, and, to a much lesser extent, fifth position of a genealogical tree.
