Ulam; a proper name borne by two men in the Chronicler's genealogies
A masculine proper name meaning perhaps 'porch' or 'vestibule,' borne by two figures in the genealogical records of Chronicles. The first Ulam is a son of Sheresh in the Manassite line (1 Chr 7:16–17). The second is a Benjaminite descendant of Saul whose sons were mighty warriors and prolific archers, numbering 150 sons and grandsons (1 Chr 8:39–40). The name is consistently transliterated across languages — English, Spanish, and French all render it 'Ulam' or 'Oulam.'
Senses
1. sense 1 — Ulam — a personal name appearing in two distinct genealogical contexts. English and Spanish uniformly transliterate 'Ulam,' while French renders 'Oulam.' German 'Vorhalle' (vestibule) interestingly reflects the common noun meaning of the root rather than the proper name. In 1 Chronicles 7:16–17 Ulam belongs to Manasseh's tribe; in 1 Chronicles 8:39–40 the name designates a Benjaminite warrior clan descended from Saul. 4×
