The sons of Dan
This phrase refers to the descendants of Dan, one of the twelve sons of Jacob, who is also known as Israel. Dan was the fifth son of Jacob and the first son of Bilhah, Rachel's maidservant. In the context of the tribes of Israel, Dan holds a significant place as one of the twelve tribes. The tribe of Dan was known for its later migration and settlement in the northern part of Israel, as described in the Book of Judges. The mention of Dan here underscores the fulfillment of God's promise to Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob that their descendants would become a great nation. The tribe of Dan, although not as prominent as some others, played a crucial role in the history of Israel, contributing to the diversity and richness of the nation.

Hushim
This name is significant as it represents the descendants of Dan. In Hebrew, "Hushim" (חוּשִׁים) can be translated to mean "hasters" or "those who make haste." The singular mention of Hushim as the son of Dan in this verse is intriguing, as it contrasts with the more extensive lists of descendants for other tribes. This could suggest a smaller family line or a focus on a particular individual within the tribe. Historically, the tribe of Dan is known for its adventurous spirit, as seen in their migration to the north and their role in various biblical narratives. The name "Hushim" may reflect the dynamic and sometimes tumultuous nature of the tribe's history. In a broader spiritual sense, the mention of Hushim reminds us of the unique contributions each tribe and individual makes to the tapestry of God's people, emphasizing that every person and family has a role in the unfolding of God's plan.

(23) Dan has one son, Hushim, called Shuham in Numbers 26:42. No genealogy of this tribe is given in Chronicles.

Verse 23. - And the sons of Dan; Hushim - "Those who make haste" (Gesenius); designated Shuham in Numbers 26:42.
