1. One of the sons of Benjamin (1 Chronicles 7:6), whose sons (1 Chronicles 7:10) and descendants are enumerated as being 17,200 warriors in David's census (1 Chronicles 7:11). He is, perhaps, the same elsewhere called ASHBEL (1 Chronicles 8:1). (See BENJAMIN); (See JACOB).

3. A Korhite of the Levitical family of Ebiasaph, second son of Meshelemiah, and one of the gate-keepers to the tabernacle or Temple (1 Chronicles 26:2). B.C. 1014.
