SHAUL . 1 . A king of Edom, Genesis 36:37 f. = 1 Chronicles 1:43 f. 1 Chronicles 1:2 . A son of Simeon ( Genesis 46:10 , Exodus 6:15 , Numbers 26:13 , 1 Chronicles 4:24 ). The clan of which he is the eponym was of mixed Isr. and Can. descent, hence Shaul is called in Genesis 46:10 and Exodus 6:15 ‘the son of the Canaanitess.’ In Numbers 26:13 the patronymic Shaulites occurs. 3 . An ancestor of Samuel ( 1 Chronicles 6:24 (9), called in 1 Chronicles 6:36 (21) Joel ).
