Chislon was the father of Elidad, who served as the Benjamite representative in the division of Canaan under Joshua (Numbers 34:21). He is mentioned only in the genealogical note identifying his son, with no additional information preserved. His son was chosen as one of the tribal leaders responsible for allocating the promised land among the Israelite tribes after the conquest. The name suggests he was a person of standing in Benjamin, though his own deeds are not recorded.
