Barnes's 1-chronicles 8:6 Bible Commentary

And they removed them to Manahath - "They" has no antecedent; and it is difficult to supply one. Almost all commentators suppose that there has been some corruption here, from which, however, we may gather that the "sons of Ehud" (or, perhaps, of Ahoah, 1 Chronicles 8:4) were originally settled at Geba (Joshua 18:24 note), but afterward removed to a place called Manahath, probably a town in the vicinity. Gera 1 Chronicles 8:7 directed the movement.

Wesley's 1-chronicles 8:6 Bible Commentary

8:6 These - These following, ver. 7 , because he here speaks of them who were removed. He describes the sons of Benjamin by theplaces of their habitation, without an exact account of their parents;because their genealogies were broken by that almost total extirpationof this tribe, Judges 20:29 - 48.
