Hushim, a son of Aher, is mentioned in the genealogy of the tribe of Dan in 1 Chronicles.
Hushim was a son of Aher, listed in the Danite or Benjamite genealogy of 1 Chronicles 7:12. A figure named Hushim also appears in Genesis 46:23 as a son of Dan who went down to Egypt, and another Hushim is mentioned in 1 Chronicles 8:8, 11 as a wife of Shaharaim, a Benjamite. The multiple occurrences of the name across different tribal contexts reflect the complexity of preserving ancient genealogical traditions in the Chronicler's sources.
