The descendants of Judah: Perez, Hezron, Karmi, Hur and Shobal

1 Chronicles 4:1-43 

The descendants of Judah: Perez, Hezron, Karmi, Hur and Shobal.

The men whose names were listed came in the days of Hezekiah king of Judah. They attacked the Hamites in their dwellings and also the Meunites who were there and completely destroyed them, as is evident to this day. Then they settled in their place, because there was pasture for their flocks. And five hundred of these Simeonites, led by Pelatiah, Neariah, Rephaiah and Uzziel, the sons of Ishi, invaded the hill country of Seir. They killed the remaining Amalekites who had escaped, and they have lived there to this day.

Why?

The brother of Perez, Zarah his whole family were put to dead. (Joshua 7:1 But the children of Israel committed a trespass in the accursed thing: for Achan, the son of Carmi, the son of Zabdi, the son of Zerah, of the tribe of Judah, took of the accursed thing: and the anger of the LORD was kindled against the children of Israel.)

The women in the Bible are important even the history of Israel seems followed the records of men

How?

The arrangement of the Lord is great, and wonderful.
