About Ziphah
Ziphah is mentioned in 1Ch.4.16 as one of the sons of Jehallelel, along with his brothers Ziph, Tiria, and Asarel. They are listed in the genealogy of Judah, which traces the lineage of the various clans and families within the tribe. The inclusion of Ziphah and his brothers in this record highlights the importance of family lineage and the preservation of ancestral heritage among the Israelites. However, the text does not provide any additional information about Ziphah's life, descendants, or role within the clan.
