(Heb., Eshton', אֶשְׁתּוֹן, according to Gesenius uxorious, according to Furst careless; Sept. Ἀσσαθών, Vulg. Esthon), a son of Mehir, and grandson of Chelub, of the tribe of Judah (1 Chronicles 4:11). B.C. ante 1618. Among his four sons and one grandson enumerated (1 Chronicles 4:12) as "the men of Recah," two (Beth-rapha and Ir-nahash) seem, however, to be rather names of places.
