Old Testament
Bedan
A descendant of Manasseh listed in the genealogical records of the tribe of Manasseh in 1 Chronicles.
Bedan is mentioned in 1 Chronicles 7:17 as a son of Ulam and a descendant of Manasseh. He appears solely within the genealogical lists of the tribe, serving to document the ancestral lineage of the Manassite clans. He should not be confused with the Bedan mentioned in 1 Samuel 12:11, who is identified as a judge or deliverer of Israel.
