bil.han is used as a personal name in genealogical lists, identifying a son of Ezer and an ancestor with named sons.

The attested forms function as a proper personal name in genealogical statements: they identify a son of Ezer in Genesis 36:27 and 1 Chronicles 1:42, and identify a man whose sons are listed in 1 Chronicles 7:10.

Senses in use

  1. Personal name in genealogical descent · dominant

    Each occurrence is tagged Noun · Proper and occurs in a genealogy. In Genesis 36:27 and 1 Chronicles 1:42, the APB renders Bilhan among Ezer's sons; in 1 Chronicles 7:10, it renders Bilhan both as Jediael's son and as the father of a further list of sons.

In the Anselm Project Bible: The APB presents the form as “Bilhan” in each cited genealogy, within statements of sons and descent. This reflects the verse-level presentation rather than a separate lexical rendering.
