πάντες οὗτοι υἱοὶ Ἀσήρ, πάντες ἄρχοντες πατριῶν ἐκλεκτοὶ ἰσχυροὶ δυνάμει, ἄρχοντες ἡγούμενοι· ἀριθμὸς αὐτῶν εἰς παράταξιν τοῦ πολεμεῖν, ἀριθμὸς αὐτῶν ἄνδρες εἴκοσι ἓξ χιλιάδες.

Haydock's commentary

Of captains; a Hebrew idiom, to denote the most excellent. (Haydock)

Hebrew, "chief of the princes." All mentioned from ver. 30, were at the hand of their tribe, in succession, and led their brethren to battle. (Calmet)
