The mention of Acud is found in the context of the descendants of Benjamin, one of the twelve sons of Jacob, who became the progenitor of one of the tribes of Israel. The tribe of Benjamin holds a significant place in biblical history, being the tribe of King Saul, the first king of Israel, and later, the Apostle Paul, originally known as Saul of Tarsus.<br><br><b>Biblical Reference:</b><br><br>The name Acud is found in <a href="/1_chronicles/8-30.htm">1 Chronicles 8:30</a>, which details the genealogy of the Benjamites. The passage reads: "And his firstborn son was Abdon, followed by Zur, Kish, Baal, Ner, Nadab, Gedor, Ahio, Zecher, and Mikloth, who was the father of Shimeah. These also lived alongside their relatives in Jerusalem." <br><br>In this context, Acud is listed among the descendants of Benjamin, though the Berean Standard Bible does not explicitly mention Acud by name in this passage. The genealogical records in 1 Chronicles serve to establish the lineage and heritage of the tribes of Israel, emphasizing the continuity of God's covenant with His people through their ancestral lines.<br><br><b>Historical and Theological Significance:</b><br><br>The genealogies in the Bible, including those in 1 Chronicles, are more than mere lists of names; they serve to connect the narrative of God's redemptive plan throughout history. Each name represents a link in the chain of God's promises to His people, highlighting His faithfulness across generations. The tribe of Benjamin, to which Acud belongs, played a crucial role in the history of Israel, both in the establishment of the monarchy and in the early Christian church.<br><br>The inclusion of Acud in the genealogical record underscores the importance of every individual in the unfolding of God's purposes. While Acud himself may not be a prominent figure in biblical narratives, his place in the genealogy of Benjamin reflects the broader theme of God's providence and the interconnectedness of His people.<br><br><b>Cultural Context:</b><br><br>In ancient Israel, genealogies were vital for establishing identity, inheritance rights, and tribal affiliations. They were meticulously maintained and served as a means of preserving the history and heritage of the people. The tribe of Benjamin, located in the central region of Israel, was known for its warriors and played a significant role in the defense and leadership of the nation.<br><br><b>Conclusion:</b><br><br>The mention of Acud, though brief, is part of the rich tapestry of biblical history that illustrates the continuity of God's covenant with Israel. Through the genealogies, the Bible affirms the value of each individual in the divine narrative, reminding believers of the enduring legacy of faith and the fulfillment of God's promises through His chosen people.<a name="isb" id="isb"></a><div class="vheading2">International Standard Bible Encyclopedia</div><span class="encheading">ACUD</span><p>a'-kud (Akoud; the King James Version Acua) = AKKUB (<a href="/ezra/2-45.htm">Ezra 2:45</a>) which see; omitted in <a href="/nasb/nehemiah/7.htm">Nehemiah 7</a>: The descendants of Acud (temple-servants) returned with Zerubbabel to Jerusalem (1 Esdras 5:30).<p><a name="thes" id="thes"></a><div class="vheading2">Thesaurus</div><a href="/topical/a/acud.htm"><span class="l"><b>Acud</b></span></a><br><b>...</b> Int.
