Raphah (or Rephaiah) was a son of Binea and a descendant of King Saul.
Raphah was a descendant of King Saul through Jonathan and Meribbaal, recorded in the Benjaminite genealogy of 1 Chronicles 8:37 (also appearing as Rephaiah in 9:43). His inclusion in the post-exilic genealogical records suggests the continued importance of maintaining Saulide lineage within the tribe of Benjamin.
