Parnach

Parnach is named once, as the father of one of the tribal princes appointed to divide the land of Canaan among the Israelites.

Father of Elizaphan

The reference comes in the list of leaders chosen to apportion the inheritance west of the Jordan: "And of the tribe of the sons of Zebulun a prince, Elizaphan the son of Parnach" (Num 34:25). Parnach himself takes no part in the action; he is identified only as the father of Elizaphan, the prince representing Zebulun in the apportionment commission. He is not mentioned again.
