Aphiah, a personal name; ancestor of Saul (1 Sam 9:1)
Aphiah stands in Saul's genealogy as one of his ancestors in the Benjamite line. Though his etymology remains uncertain, his inclusion in the royal lineage establishes Saul's tribal credentials. The name appears nowhere else in Scripture, marking him as a figure known only through his descendant's fame. Genealogies like this anchored Israel's kings in their tribal heritage.

1. sense 1 — First Samuel 9:1 traces Saul's pedigree through multiple generations: 'Kish son of Abiel son of Zeror son of Becorath son of Aphiah, a Benjamite.' The consistent transliteration across languages (English/French/German 'Aphiah', Spanish 'Afíaj') treats this as an authentic personal name, preserving the historical memory of Saul's pre-monarchic lineage even when the name's meaning had been lost. 1×
