Numbers 26:39 lists two family groups within the tribe of Benjamin: the Shuphamites, descended from Shupham, and the Huphamites, descended from Hupham. This verse is part of a census, recording the distinct clans that made up the tribe at that time.
In this section of Numbers, Moses is recounting the families of Israel as God instructed, preparing the people for entering the Promised Land. Each family group is named to show their lineage and to organize the distribution of land and responsibilities among the tribes. This verse specifically identifies two branches within Benjamin’s descendants, emphasizing the importance of family heritage in Israel’s community structure.
