Hammuel חַמּוּאֵל

Hammuel is mentioned in 1Ch.4.26 as a descendant of Simeon, one of the twelve tribes of Israel. He is identified as the son of Mishma and is listed in the genealogy of Simeon. The genealogies in 1 Chronicles provide a record of the families and clans within each of the Israelite tribes, highlighting their lineage and descent from the twelve sons of Israel (or 'Jacob'). The mention of Hammuel in this genealogy serves to demonstrate the continuity of Simeon's lineage and to provide a historical record of his descendants.
