Zethan

Person

Zethan was a son of Bilhan and great-grandson of Benjamin, listed in the tribal genealogy of Benjamin in 1 Chronicles 7:10. He is mentioned alongside his brothers as a head of his father's household and one of the mighty warriors of Benjamin. He appears only in this genealogical record and plays no further role in the biblical narrative. The name may mean olive tree or relate to the root for brightness. Bilhan's other sons included Jeush, Benjamin (a second Benjamin in the Benjamite line), Ehud, Chenaanah, and others.
