A son of Hebron (1 Chronicles 2:43); perhaps the meaning is a place near Hebron where one of Hebron's sons settled, from whence the family took its name. Smith's Bible Dictionary makes Tappuah colonized by the men of Hebron, the same place as Beth Tappuah. (See BETH TAPPUAH.) But the continuation of the genealogy, and Korah being never mentioned as a place, requires Hebron to be a person.
