SCRIPTURE

"And of Asher, such as were able to go out in the host, that could set the battle in array, forty thousand." — 1 Chronicles 12:36 (ASV)

Expert in war. —Literally, to order or marshal battle (ad aciem struendam). The same phrase occurred in 1 Chronicles 12:33; 1 Chronicles 12:35. The margin (1 Chronicles 12:33), “rangers of battle,” is good.
