Bible Person
Meaning: an oak; a curse; perjury · Male · 1 cross reference
This Elah entry refers to a Benjaminite family figure in 1 Chronicles 9, not to the kings or other men of the same name elsewhere in Scripture. He belongs to the genealogies of Jerusalem's inhabitants after the exile. First appears in 1 Chr 9:8.1
AI summary: This Elah matters because his single cross reference helps locate one household within the restored city's settled population. Even a brief name contributes to the picture of Jerusalem being repopulated through remembered families. Taken together, the material presents this Elah as a genealogical figure in post-exilic Jerusalem.1
