Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: There are no direct Greek equivalents for the name Yishpan, as it is a specific Hebrew proper noun. However, genealogical records in the New Testament, such as those found in the Gospels, reflect a similar emphasis on lineage and heritage.

Usage: Yishpan is a personal name found in the Hebrew Bible. It is used to identify a descendant of Benjamin, one of the twelve tribes of Israel. The name itself may imply characteristics such as smoothness or evenness, possibly reflecting a trait or quality attributed to the individual or his lineage.

Cultural and Historical Background: In the context of ancient Israel, names often held significant meaning and were sometimes indicative of personal attributes, familial heritage, or divine purpose. The tribe of Benjamin, to which Yishpan belonged, was one of the smaller tribes of Israel but played a crucial role in the history of the nation, producing notable figures such as King Saul and the Apostle Paul (formerly Saul of Tarsus).
