Overview
Zethan appears in the genealogical records of 1 Chronicles as a descendant of Benjamin. He was the son of Bilhan and is mentioned among the chiefs and mighty men of his family line. While little is known about his personal life or deeds, his inclusion in Scripture's genealogical record demonstrates God's attention to detail and His care for all people throughout history.
Key Scriptures
"The sons of Bilhan: Jeush, Benjamin, Ehud, Chenaanah, Zethan, Tarshish, and Ahishahar. All these sons of Bilhan were heads of fathers' houses, mighty men of valor, seventeen thousand two hundred who were ready for war." (1 Chronicles 7:10, ESV)
Application
Though Zethan's name appears only once in Scripture, his life reminds us that God records and values the faithful lives of all His people, whether they achieve great renown or serve quietly within their families and communities.
