His name appears in the context of the descendants of Asher, one of the tribes of Israel. The genealogies in Chronicles serve to establish the continuity of the Israelite people and their tribal identities. Japhlet's inclusion highlights the importance of every family line in the broader narrative of Israel's history. The genealogies also emphasize the fulfillment of God's promises to the patriarchs regarding the multiplication of their descendants.<p><b>Pasach, Bimhal, and Ashvath:</b><br>These names are unique to this passage, and little is known about these individuals outside of this genealogical record. The mention of these sons underscores the chronicler's intent to preserve the lineage and heritage of the tribe of Asher. Each name contributes to the detailed record-keeping that was vital for maintaining tribal and familial identities in ancient Israel. The names themselves, while not directly linked to other biblical narratives, reflect the cultural practice of naming as a means of preserving family legacy.<p><b>These were Japhlet’s sons:</b><br>This phrase reaffirms the familial connection and the importance of lineage in the biblical narrative. In the context of 1 Chronicles, genealogies serve not only as historical records but also as theological affirmations of God's faithfulness to His people. By listing Japhlet's sons, the chronicler ensures that even seemingly minor figures are remembered within the grand tapestry of Israel's history. This reflects the biblical theme that every individual and family has a place in God's plan, no matter how small their role may appear.<div class="vheading2">Persons / Places / Events</div>1. <b><a href="/topical/j/japhlet.htm">Japhlet</a></b><br>A descendant of Asher, one of the tribes of Israel.
