His name appears in the Old Testament, specifically in the First Book of Chronicles. The genealogies in Chronicles serve to establish the lineage and tribal affiliations of the Israelites, providing a historical and theological framework for understanding the continuity of God's covenant with His people.<br><br><b>Biblical Reference:</b><br><br>Misham is mentioned in <a href="/1_chronicles/8-12.htm">1 Chronicles 8:12</a>, which states: "The sons of Elpaal: Eber, Misham, Shemed (who built Ono and Lod with its towns)." <br><br><b>Genealogical Context:</b><br><br>Misham is identified as one of the sons of Elpaal, a descendant of Benjamin, the youngest son of Jacob and Rachel. The tribe of Benjamin holds a significant place in Israel's history, being one of the twelve tribes and playing a crucial role in the formation of the nation of Israel. The genealogies in <a href="/bsb/1_chronicles/8.htm">1 Chronicles 8</a> provide insight into the descendants of Benjamin, highlighting the tribe's contributions to the development of Israelite society and its territorial expansions.<br><br><b>Historical and Theological Significance:</b><br><br>The mention of Misham, though brief, contributes to the broader narrative of the tribe of Benjamin's growth and influence. The genealogical records in Chronicles emphasize the faithfulness of God in preserving the lineage of His chosen people. Each name listed, including Misham's, represents a link in the chain of God's redemptive history, underscoring the importance of family and heritage in the biblical narrative.<br><br>The tribe of Benjamin, despite its small size, produced significant figures in Israel's history, including King Saul, the first king of Israel, and the Apostle Paul, a pivotal figure in the New Testament. The inclusion of Misham in the genealogical record serves as a reminder of the interconnectedness of the tribes and the unfolding of God's plan through diverse individuals and families.<br><br><b>Cultural and Geographical Context:</b><br><br>The reference to Shemed, Misham's brother, as the builder of Ono and Lod, situates Misham within a context of urban development and territorial establishment. Ono and Lod were towns located in the region allotted to the tribe of Benjamin, reflecting the tribe's active role in settling and fortifying the land. This context highlights the practical aspects of tribal life, including construction, defense, and community organization, which were essential for the survival and prosperity of the Israelites in the Promised Land.<br><br><b>Conclusion:</b><br><br>While Misham's mention in the Bible is limited to a genealogical listing, his inclusion in the sacred text underscores the value placed on lineage and the fulfillment of God's promises through successive generations. The genealogies in Chronicles, including the reference to Misham, serve as a testament to the enduring legacy of the tribes of Israel and their role in the divine narrative.<a name="hit" id="hit"></a><div class="vheading2">Hitchcock's Bible Names Dictionary</div><span class="encheading">Misham</span><p>their savior; taking away<a name="smi" id="smi"></a><div class="vheading2">Smith's Bible Dictionary</div><span class="encheading">Misham</span><p>(<i>purification</i>), a Benjamite, son of Elpaal and descendant of Shaharaim.
