Hu'shim. (who makes haste).

1. In Genesis 46:23, "the children of Dan," are said to have been Hushim. The name is plural, as if of a tribe rather than an individual. In Numbers 26:42, the name is changed to Shuham.

2. A Benjamite, 1 Chronicles 7:12, and here again, apparently the plural nature of the name is recognized, and Hushim are stated to be "the sons of Aher."

3. One of the two wives of Shaharaim. 1 Chronicles 8:8. (B.C. 1450).
