Ochran — an Asherite man, father of Pagiel, named in the wilderness census and tribal offerings
Ochran is the father of Pagiel, who served as the leader of the tribe of Asher during the wilderness period. Like several other tribal fathers in Numbers, Ochran appears exclusively in the formulaic lists of the census (Num 1:13; 2:27), the tabernacle dedication offerings (Num 7:72, 77), and the order of march (Num 10:26). The Septuagint renders the name as Echran, suggesting a guttural opening in pronunciation.
