Rephah was his son
The name "Rephah" is rooted in the Hebrew word "רְפָה" (Rephah), which can mean "healed" or "relaxed." This name may suggest a period of peace or restoration within the family lineage. In the context of the genealogies in 1 Chronicles, Rephah represents a link in the chain of the tribe of Ephraim, emphasizing the continuity and faithfulness of God's promises to His people. The mention of Rephah underscores the importance of each generation in the unfolding of God's redemptive plan.

Resheph his son
"Resheph" comes from the Hebrew "רֶשֶׁף" (Resheph), which can mean "flame" or "fire." This name might symbolize zeal, passion, or divine judgment. In ancient Near Eastern cultures, Resheph was also a deity associated with plague and war, but in the biblical context, it is a personal name, possibly indicating the fervor or challenges faced by this individual. The inclusion of Resheph in the genealogy highlights the diverse experiences and characteristics of those who are part of God's covenant community.

Telah his son
The name "Telah" is derived from the Hebrew "תֶּלַח" (Telah), which is less common and its meaning is not entirely clear, though it may be related to "growth" or "accumulation." This could imply a period of prosperity or expansion for the family. Telah's place in the genealogy serves as a reminder of the growth and development that occurs within God's people, both physically and spiritually, as they remain faithful to His covenant.

Tahan his son
"Tahan" comes from the Hebrew "תַּחַן" (Tahan), which can mean "camp" or "encampment." This name might reflect a period of settlement or stability for the family. In the broader narrative of Israel's history, the concept of encampment is significant, as it recalls the Israelites' journey through the wilderness and their eventual settlement in the Promised Land. Tahan's mention in the genealogy emphasizes the themes of journey, settlement, and the fulfillment of God's promises to His people.

(25) And Rephah his son; and Resheph and Telah his son.--(Heb. text). This seems to mean that Rephah was son of Beriah. But perhaps a son of Ephraim is intended. Rephah does not occur among the sons of Ephraim (Numbers 26:35-36). The word "his son" (beno) may have fallen out after Resheph. Otherwise Resheph is brother and Telah son of Rephah (the elder). Resheph, which means "arrow," "lightning," "fever," was a title of the Phoenician Baal. "Tahan," a son of Ephraim (Numbers 26:35 : "the clan of the Tahanites").

Verse 25. - Of the names Rephah and Resheph nothing else is known.
