Rohgah, descendant of Asher in genealogical record
Rohgah was a descendant of Asher listed in the tribal genealogies of 1 Chronicles 7:34. This genealogical section traces Asherite clans, preserving names that appear nowhere else in Scripture. The Qere/Ketiv variation shows textual uncertainty in spelling, a common phenomenon with rare proper names. Such genealogical lists served to establish tribal identity and inheritance rights, even for obscure family lines. Rohgah represents one thread in the complex tapestry of Asher's descendants.

Senses
1. sense 1 The entry shows Qere/Ketiv variation in 1 Chronicles 7:34, with both forms preserved. Spanish marks this as ketiv with the reading 'y-Rohga,' while other languages preserve both variants. As a hapax name appearing only in this genealogical list, Rohgah exemplifies the hundreds of biblical names preserved solely for tribal record-keeping purposes, maintaining family identity within the Asherite clan structure even when no narrative attaches to the individual.
