Shuppim: Ch1 7:15; Gen 46:21, Muppim Huppim: Num 26:39, Shupham, Hupham Ir: Ch1 7:7, Iri Aher: Aher signifies another, and it has been conjectured that these were Danites, "the sons of another tribe;" especially as Hushim is named as the only son of Dan, Gen 46:23. And they suppose that the name of Dan was not mentioned, because his descendants first established idolatry. But Zebulun, as well as Dan, is here omitted, perhaps because none of either of these tribes returned at first from Babylon. Though the Benjamites had been almost destroyed in the first days of the judges, they soon became numerous and powerful. Num 26:38, Ahiram 1 Chronicles 7:13
