The name means "Yahweh builds" or "Yahweh understands," reflecting the common practice of embedding the name of God within personal names, signifying a relationship or attribute of God. Jeroham, meaning "may he be compassionate," is a name that appears multiple times in the Old Testament, often associated with the tribe of Benjamin. This lineage highlights the importance of family heritage and tribal identity in Israelite society, emphasizing the continuity of God's people through generations.<p><b>Elah son of Uzzi, the son of Michri</b><br>Elah, meaning "terebinth" or "oak," is a name that signifies strength and endurance, much like the tree it represents. Uzzi, meaning "my strength," is a name that reflects reliance on God's power. Michri, whose name means "selling" or "price," is less frequently mentioned, but his inclusion in this genealogy underscores the detailed record-keeping of the Israelites. This lineage is part of the chronicler's effort to establish the legitimacy and continuity of the post-exilic community by tracing their roots back to the original tribes of Israel.<p><b>Meshullam son of Shephatiah, the son of Reuel, the son of Ibnijah</b><br>Meshullam, meaning "friend" or "ally," is a name that appears several times in the Old Testament, often associated with those who played significant roles in the restoration of Jerusalem. Shephatiah, meaning "Yahweh has judged," reflects a common theme in Israelite names, acknowledging God's sovereignty and justice. Reuel, meaning "friend of God," is a name that signifies a close relationship with the divine, reminiscent of other biblical figures who were called friends of God, such as Abraham. Ibnijah, meaning "Yahweh builds," is a name that, like Ibneiah, emphasizes God's role in establishing and sustaining His people. This lineage serves to connect the post-exilic community to their ancestral heritage, reinforcing their identity and purpose as God's chosen people.<div class="vheading2">Persons / Places / Events</div>1. <b><a href="/topical/i/ibneiah.htm">Ibneiah</a></b><br>- A descendant of Benjamin, highlighting the continuity of the tribe's lineage.<br><br>2. <b><a href="/topical/j/jeroham.htm">Jeroham</a></b><br>- Father of Ibneiah, part of the genealogical record of the Benjamites.<br><br>3. <b><a href="/topical/e/elah.htm">Elah</a></b><br>- Another Benjamite, son of Uzzi, showing the familial connections within the tribe.<br><br>4. <b><a href="/topical/u/uzzi.htm">Uzzi</a></b><br>- Father of Elah, contributing to the genealogical history.<br><br>5. <b><a href="/topical/m/michri.htm">Michri</a></b><br>- Ancestor of Elah, part of the Benjamite lineage.<br><br>6. <b><a href="/topical/m/meshullam.htm">Meshullam</a></b><br>- A Benjamite, son of Shephatiah, continuing the tribal genealogy.<br><br>7. <b><a href="/topical/s/shephatiah.htm">Shephatiah</a></b><br>- Father of Meshullam, part of the Benjamite family tree.<br><br>8. <b><a href="/topical/r/reuel.htm">Reuel</a></b><br>- Ancestor of Meshullam, contributing to the tribal history.<br><br>9. <b><a href="/topical/i/ibnijah.htm">Ibnijah</a></b><br>- Ancestor of Reuel, part of the genealogical record of the Benjamites.<div class="vheading2">Teaching Points</div><b><a href="/topical/i/importance_of_genealogy.htm">Importance of Genealogy</a></b><br>The genealogical records in 1 Chronicles emphasize the importance of heritage and identity in God's plan.
