However, genealogical records in the New Testament, such as those found in the Gospels, serve a similar purpose in establishing lineage and fulfillment of prophecy.<p><span class="tophdg">Usage: </span>Achban is a personal name found in the genealogical records of the Bible. It is used to identify a specific individual within the tribe of Benjamin. The name itself may carry the connotation of being hidden or concealed, which could reflect a characteristic or a narrative element associated with the person or his lineage.<p><span class="tophdg">Cultural and Historical Background: </span>In the context of ancient Israel, names often held significant meaning and were sometimes indicative of personal traits, familial heritage, or divine encounters. The tribe of Benjamin, to which Achban belonged, was one of the twelve tribes of Israel, known for its warriors and its strategic location between the northern and southern kingdoms. Genealogies were crucial for maintaining tribal identity and inheritance rights.<div class="vheading2">NAS Exhaustive Concordance</div><span class="hdg">Word Origin</span><br>from <a href="/hebrew/251.htm">ach</a> and <a href="/hebrew/995.htm">bin</a><br><span class="hdg">Definition</span><br>"brother of an intelligent one," an Isr.<br><span class="hdg">NASB Translation</span><br>Ahban (1).<p><div align="center"><span class="smalltext"><iframe width="100%" height="85" scrolling=no src="/nasec.htm" frameborder=0 cellpadding=0></iframe></span></div><div class="vheading2">Brown-Driver-Briggs</div> <font class="hebrew2">אַחְבָּן</font> <font size="+1" color="#552200"><b>proper name, masculine</b></font> (<em>brother of an intelligent one</em>) son of Abishur, of Judah <a href="/interlinear/1_chronicles/2-29.htm">1 Chronicles 2:29</a>. <br><br><iframe width="100%" height="85" scrolling=no src="/bsoft2.htm" frameborder=0 cellpadding=0></iframe><div class="vheading2">Strong's Exhaustive Concordance</div>Ahban <p>From <a href="/hebrew/251.htm">'ach</a> and <a href="/hebrew/995.htm">biyn</a>; brother (i.e. Possessor) of understanding; Achban, an Israelite -- Ahban. <p>see HEBREW <a href="/hebrew/251.htm">'ach</a> <p>see HEBREW <a href="/hebrew/995.htm">biyn</a> <div class="vheading2">Forms and Transliterations</div>אַחְבָּ֖ן אחבן ’aḥ·bān ’aḥbān achBan<div class="vheading2">Links</div><a href="/interlinear/matthew/1-1.htm">Interlinear Greek</a> • <a href="/interlinear/genesis/1-1.htm">Interlinear Hebrew</a> • <a href="/strongs.htm">Strong's Numbers</a> • <a href="/englishmans_greek.htm">Englishman's Greek Concordance</a> • <a href="/englishmans_hebrew.htm">Englishman's Hebrew Concordance</a> • <a href="/texts/matthew/1-1.htm">Parallel Texts</a></div></div><div id="centbox"><div class="padcent"><div class="vheading">Englishman's Concordance</div><b><a href="/text/1_chronicles/2-29.htm" title="Biblos Lexicon">1 Chronicles 2:29</a> </b><br><a href="/interlinear/1_chronicles/2.htm" title="Hebrew">HEB:</a> <span class="hebrew3">ל֔וֹ אֶת־ <b> אַחְבָּ֖ן </b> וְאֶת־ מוֹלִֽיד׃</span><br><a href="http://biblehub.com/nas/1_chronicles/2.htm" title="New American Standard Bible">NAS:</a> and she bore <span class="itali">him Ahban</span> and Molid.<br><a href="/kjvs/1_chronicles/2.htm" title="King James Bible with Strong's">KJV:</a> and she bare <span class="itali">him Ahban,</span> and Molid.<br><a href="/interlinear/1_chronicles/2-29.htm" title="Biblos Interlinear Bible">INT:</a> Abihail bore <span class="itali">Ahban</span> and Molid<p><i><a href="/hebrew/strongs_257.htm">1 Occurrence</a></i><br /><br /><b><a href="/hebrew/strongs_257.htm">Strong's Hebrew 257<br>1 Occurrence</a></b><br><br><a href="/hebrew/achban_257.htm">’aḥ·bān — 1 Occ.</a><br></div></div></td></tr></table></div><div id="mdd"><div align="center"><div class="bot2"><table align="center" width="100%"><tr><td><div align="center"> <script id="3d27ed63fc4348d5b062c4527ae09445"> (new Image()).src = 'https://capi.connatix.com/tr/si?token=51ce25d5-1a8c-424a-8695-4bd48c750f35&cid=3a9f82d0-4344-4f8d-ac0c-e1a0eb43a405'; </script> <script id="b817b7107f1d4a7997da1b3c33457e03"> (new Image()).src = 'https://capi.connatix.com/tr/si?token=cb0edd8b-b416-47eb-8c6d-3cc96561f7e8&cid=3a9f82d0-4344-4f8d-ac0c-e1a0eb43a405'; </script><br /><br />  <div id='div-gpt-ad-1529103594582-2'> </div><br /><br />  <div id='div-gpt-ad-1529103594582-0' style='max-width: 300px;'> </div><br /><br />  <div id='div-gpt-ad-1529103594582-3'> </div><br /><br />  <div id='div-gpt-ad-1529103594582-1' style='max-width: 300px;'> </div><br /><br />  <div align="center" id='div-gpt-ad-1531425649696-0'> </div><br /><br /> <ins class="adsbygoogle" style="display:inline-block;width:200px;height:200px" data-ad-client="ca-pub-3753401421161123" data-ad-slot="3592799687"></ins> <script> (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}); </script><br /><br /> </div> <div id="left"><a href="/hebrew/256.htm" onmouseover='lft.src="/leftgif.png"' onmouseout='lft.src="/left.png"' title="256"><img src="/left.png" name="lft" border="0" alt="256" /></a></div><div id="right"><a href="/hebrew/258.htm" onmouseover='rght.src="/rightgif.png"' onmouseout='rght.src="/right.png"' title="258"><img src="/right.png" name="rght" border="0" alt="258" /></a></div><div id="botleft"><a href="#" onmouseover='botleft.src="/botleftgif.png"' onmouseout='botleft.src="/botleft.png"' title="Top of Page"><img src="/botleft.png" name="botleft" border="0" alt="Top of Page" /></a></div><div id="botright"><a href="#" onmouseover='botright.src="/botrightgif.png"' onmouseout='botright.src="/botright.png"' title="Top of Page"><img src="/botright.png" name="botright" border="0" alt="Top of Page" /></a></div><div id="bot"><iframe width="100%" height="1500" scrolling="no" src="/botmenubhchap.htm" frameborder="0"></iframe></div></td></tr></table></div></body></html>
