This name is common in the Old Testament, appearing in various genealogies and narratives. Hananiah is a reminder of God's grace and favor, a theme prevalent throughout the Bible. In the context of <a href="/1_chronicles/8.htm">1 Chronicles 8</a>, Hananiah is listed among the descendants of Benjamin, highlighting the tribe's significance in Israel's history. The name also appears in the book of Daniel, where Hananiah, also known as Shadrach, is one of the faithful companions of Daniel who remains steadfast in his faith despite persecution. This connection underscores the theme of faithfulness to God.<p><b>Elam</b><br>Elam is both a personal name and a geographical location in the Bible. As a name, Elam means "eternity" or "hidden." In the genealogical context of <a href="/1_chronicles/8.htm">1 Chronicles 8</a>, Elam is a descendant of Benjamin, indicating the continuity and preservation of the tribe. Geographically, Elam was an ancient civilization located east of Mesopotamia, often mentioned in the context of prophecy and judgment (e.g., <a href="/isaiah/11-11.htm">Isaiah 11:11</a>, <a href="/jeremiah/49-34.htm">Jeremiah 49:34-39</a>). The dual use of the name may symbolize the far-reaching influence and connections of the Israelite tribes.<p><b>Anthothijah</b><br>Anthothijah is a name that appears only in this genealogical list, and its meaning is not entirely clear, though it may be related to the town of Anathoth. Anathoth was a Levitical city in the territory of Benjamin, known as the hometown of the prophet Jeremiah (<a href="/jeremiah/1.htm">Jeremiah 1:1</a>). The mention of Anthothijah may suggest a connection to the priestly or prophetic tradition within the tribe of Benjamin. This connection highlights the spiritual heritage and responsibilities of the tribe, as well as the importance of maintaining a lineage that honors God's covenant.<div class="vheading2">Persons / Places / Events</div>1. <b><a href="/topical/h/hananiah.htm">Hananiah</a></b><br>A descendant of Benjamin, Hananiah is listed among the sons of Benjamin, indicating his place within the tribe and his role in the genealogical record of Israel.<br><br>2. <b><a href="/topical/e/elam.htm">Elam</a></b><br>Another descendant of Benjamin, Elam is part of the genealogical record that traces the lineage and heritage of the tribe of Benjamin.<br><br>3. <b><a href="/topical/a/anthothijah.htm">Anthothijah</a></b><br>Also a descendant of Benjamin, Anthothijah is included in the genealogical listing, emphasizing the importance of family lineage in the history of Israel.<div class="vheading2">Teaching Points</div><b><a href="/topical/t/the_importance_of_genealogy_in_scripture.htm">The Importance of Genealogy in Scripture</a></b><br>Genealogies in the Bible serve to connect individuals to the larger account of God's people, emphasizing the continuity of God's promises through generations.<br><br><b><a href="/topical/u/understanding_our_spiritual_heritage.htm">Understanding Our Spiritual Heritage</a></b><br>Just as the Israelites valued their genealogical records, Christians are encouraged to understand and appreciate their spiritual heritage, tracing their faith back to the early church and the teachings of Christ.<br><br><b><a href="/topical/t/the_role_of_each_individual_in_god's_plan.htm">The Role of Each Individual in God's Plan</a></b><br>Every name in the genealogical records, including those in <a href="/1_chronicles/8-24.htm">1 Chronicles 8:24</a>, represents a life that contributed to the unfolding of God's plan.
