Topical Lexicon Biblical Occurrence Jeuz appears once in Scripture: “Jeuz, Sakia, and Mirmah; these were his sons, heads of families” (1 Chronicles 8:10). Genealogical Significance 1. Son of Shaharaim and Hodesh in the tribe of Benjamin. Historical Setting • Shaharaim is said to have fathered Jeuz “in the country of Moab” (1 Chronicles 8:7). The Benjamite presence east of the Jordan shows that tribal boundaries were not rigid; Israelites migrated for economic opportunity and safety (Ruth 1:1–2; Jeremiah 40:11–12). Theological Insights • God’s covenant faithfulness includes people otherwise forgotten by history. Though Jeuz is mentioned only once, his name is preserved because every family contributes to redemptive history (Psalm 87:6). Ministry Application • Pastors and teachers can highlight Jeuz to show congregations that obscurity in human eyes is not obscurity to God (Hebrews 6:10). Related Passages • Tribal leadership lists: Numbers 26:38–41; 1 Chronicles 7:6–12.
