His mention here highlights the importance of family lineage in the chronicling of Israel's history. Genealogies served to establish tribal identities and inheritance rights, which were crucial in maintaining the social and religious order of ancient Israel. The inclusion of Ulla's sons in the record underscores the chronicler's intent to provide a comprehensive account of the descendants of Asher, one of the twelve tribes of Israel.<p><b>Arah,</b><br>Arah is listed as one of the sons of Ulla. The name Arah appears elsewhere in the Bible, notably in the genealogies of the tribe of Benjamin (<a href="/ezra/2-5.htm">Ezra 2:5</a>; <a href="/nehemiah/7-10.htm">Nehemiah 7:10</a>), though it is likely a different individual. Names were often repeated across tribes and families, reflecting common cultural or familial significance. The name Arah means "wayfarer" or "traveler," which may suggest a characteristic or hope associated with the child at birth.<p><b>Hanniel,</b><br>Hanniel, another son of Ulla, bears a name meaning "God is gracious." This name reflects a common practice in Israelite culture of incorporating the name of God (El) into personal names, signifying a relationship with or attribute of God. Hanniel is also the name of a prince of the tribe of Manasseh (<a href="/numbers/34-23.htm">Numbers 34:23</a>), indicating that it was a name of some prominence and possibly suggesting a hope for leadership or divine favor.<p><b>and Rizia.</b><br>Rizia, the third son of Ulla, is a name that does not appear elsewhere in the biblical text, making it unique to this genealogy. The meaning of Rizia is less clear, but it may be related to words meaning "delight" or "pleasure." The inclusion of Rizia, like his brothers, serves to complete the record of Ulla's lineage, ensuring that even lesser-known families are remembered in the history of Israel. This reflects the biblical theme of God's concern for all His people, regardless of their prominence or obscurity.<div class="vheading2">Persons / Places / Events</div>1. <b><a href="/topical/u/ulla.htm">Ulla</a></b><br>A descendant of Asher, one of the tribes of Israel.
