<p> ''''' a ''''' - ''''' hı̄´ram ''''' ( אחיום , <i> ''''' 'ăḥı̄rām ''''' </i> , "exalted brother," or "my brother is exalted"): A son of Benjamin. [[Mentioned]] third of the five in &nbsp;Numbers 26:38 , &nbsp;Numbers 26:39 . In &nbsp;1 Chronicles 8:1 five sons are likewise mentioned, being explicitly numbered; the third name, Aharah ( <i> ''''' 'aḥraḥ ''''' </i> ), is conjectured to be either a corruption of Ahiram or a different name for the same person. In &nbsp;1 Chronicles 7:6 is a fuller list of Benjamite names, but it is fragmentary and not clear. In it occurs Aher ( <i> ''''' 'aḥēr ''''' </i> ), which may be either Ahiram or Aharah with the end of the word lost. In &nbsp;Genesis 46:21 ten sons of [[Benjamin]] are mentioned, some being there counted as sons who, in the other lists, are spoken of as more remote descendants. In this list Ehi ( <i> ''''' 'ēḥı̄ ''''' </i> ) is perhaps Ahiram shortened. See Aharah; Aher; Ehi . </p>
