Fausset's Bible Dictionary [1]

Shuthalhites ( Numbers 26:35). Ancestor of Joshua ( 1 Chronicles 7:20-27). Lord A. C. Hervey, viewing 1 Chronicles 7 as corrupt, restores the line of Shuthelah thus:

(1) Joseph;

(2) Ephraim;

(3) Shuthelah;

(4) Eran or Laadan;

(5) Ammihud;

(6) Elishama, captain of Ephraim ( Numbers 1:10);

(7) Nun;

(8) Joshua. The affair with the men of Gath ( Joshua 7:20-27;  Joshua 8:13) was probably after Israel's settlement in Canaan; and Ephraim and Shuthelah mean the individuals of their descendants who represented them as heads of the tribe or family. The Ephraimite settlements in the mountain district containing Bethhoron, Gezer, and Timnath Serah, were suited for a descent on the Philistine plain containing Gath. Benjamin helped Ephraim against the men of Gath. The Ephraim who mourned for his sons Ezer and Elead was not the patriarch son of Joseph, but a descendant who bore Ephraim's name.

Hastings' Dictionary of the Bible [2]

SHUTHELAH . One of the three clans of the tribe of Ephraim (  Numbers 26:35 , [gentilic Shuthelahite ] 36). In the parallel passage,   1 Chronicles 7:20-21 , the foundation text has been expanded and mis-written.

Smith's Bible Dictionary [3]

Shu'thelah. (Noise Of Breaking). Head of an Ephraimite family, called, after him, Shuthalhites,  Numbers 26:35, and lineal ancestor of Joshua, the son of Nun.  1 Chronicles 7:20-27.

Morrish Bible Dictionary [4]

1. Son of Ephraim.  Numbers 26:35,36;  1 Chronicles 7:20 .

2. Son of Zabad, a descendant of Ephraim.   1 Chronicles 7:21 .

Holman Bible Dictionary [5]

 Numbers 26:35

Cyclopedia of Biblical, Theological and Ecclesiastical Literature [6]

(Heb. Shuthe'lach, שׁוּתֶלִח , perhaps Noise Of Breaking [Gesenius], or Setting [i.e. son] Of Shelach [Furst], Or Fresh Plant [Muhlau]; Sept. in Numbers Σουθαλά or Σουταλά v.r. Θουσαλά or Θωσουσαλά , in Chronicles Σωθαλά v.r. Σωθαλέ and Σωθαλάθ ) , the name of two Ephraimites.

1. First named of the three sons of Ephraim, but not father of Eran ( Numbers 26:35-36), though whom he became the progenitor of a family that bore both their names ( 1 Chronicles 7:20). B.C. post 1856 and ante 1802. (See Bered).

2. A descendant of the preceding, being the son of Zabad and the father of Ezer and Elead ( 1 Chronicles 7:21). B.C. apparently post 1618.
