Barnes's 1-chronicles 1:17 Bible Commentary
The sons of Shem - i. e., descendants. Uz, Hul, Gether, and Meshech (or Mash), are stated to have been "sons of Aram" Genesis 10:23. Meshech is the reading of all the MSS., and is supported by the Septuagint here and in Genesis 10:23. It seems preferable to "Mash," which admits of no very probable explanation. Just as Hamites and Semites were intermingled in Arabia (Genesis 10:7, note; Genesis 10:29, note), so Semites and Japhethites may have been intermingled in Cappadocia - the country of the Meshech or Moschi (Genesis 10:2 note); and this Aramaean ad-mixture may have been the origin of the notion, so prevalent among the Greeks, that the Cappadocians were Syrians.
Wesley's 1-chronicles 1:17 Bible Commentary
1:17 The sons - Either the name of sons is so taken here as to include grandsons, or, these words, the children of Aram, are understoodbefore Uz, out of Genesis 10:23 , where they are expressed.
