STEPBible TIPNR
Parnach is mentioned in the Bible as the father of Elizaphan, the leader from the tribe of Zebulun appointed by Moses to help divide the land of Canaan among the Israelite tribes (Num 34:25). Elizaphan was chosen to represent the tribe of Zebulun in the process of allocating the land to the tribes according to their size and needs. The mention of Parnach as Elizaphan's father highlights the importance of family lineage and the role of the father in the identification and status of individuals in Israelite society.
