(1) A king of Edom (Genesis 36:37 ff = 1 Chronicles 1:48 ff).
(2) A son of Simeon (Genesis 46:10; Exodus 6:15; Numbers 26:13; 1 Chronicles 4:24 ). The clan was of notoriously impure stock, and, therefore, Shaul is called "the son of a Canaanitish woman" (Genesis 46:10; Exodus 6:15 ); the clan was of mixed Israelite and Canaanitish descent. The patronymic Shaulites is found in Numbers 26:13 .
(3) An ancestor of Samuel (1 Chronicles 6:24 (Hebrew 9)); in 1 Chronicles 6:36 he is called "Joel."
