Huram

People · Updated 2026-05-07

Huram appears as a Benjamite name in the genealogies of 1 Chronicles. The Tyrian king and the master craftsman who appear elsewhere under the form "Huram" in Chronicles are gathered under the umbrella for Hiram.

Son of Bela

Bela, Benjamin's firstborn, has his sons recorded in the Chronicler's tribal list. Huram closes the line: "and Gera, and Shephuphan, and Huram" (1Ch 8:5). His name stands as the last of Bela's children there, and nothing further about him is preserved.
