Ahban

Ahban was a son of Abishur and his wife Abihail, a descendant of Judah through the Jerahmeelite clan (1 Chronicles 2:29). He is listed alongside his brother Molid in the genealogical records that Chronicle preserves for the southern Judahite families. The Jerahmeelites settled in the Negev region and maintained their own distinct genealogical traditions within the broader tribe of Judah. Ahban appears in no narrative episode, and his significance is entirely genealogical, attesting the continuity of Judah's southern clans through the monarchy period.
