A man of the tribe of Asher during the time of Egypt and the wilderness, mentioned in 1 Chronicles 7:31.
About Birzaith
Malchiel’s son of Asher’s tribe (1 Chr 7:31). Since parallel lists fail to mention him (Gn 46:17; Nm 26:44–47), it is possible that Birzaith (kjv “Birzavith”) was the name of a city Malchiel founded. If so, the city may have been northwest of Bethel, near Tyre, and is now called Birzeit.
