1Ch 4:40 | MHM | STEP | v. 40 : Some Simeonites went to a place called the entrance of Gedor , which was in Arabia and lived there after defeating the people who descended from Ham. They found good land with plenty of grass and water. The land was peaceful, even during a time when the kings of Assyria were causing trouble for other nations. The former people were shepherds and did not bother anyone, so they were not bothered themselves. When the Simeonites took over, they enjoyed both the riches and the peace of the land (1 Chronicles 4:40 ).
