• חָרִיף

(Heb. Chariph', חָרַי, autumal rain;Sept. Ἀρείμ, Ἀρίφ ), the name apparently of two men.

1. An Israelite whose descendants (or possibly a place: whose inhabitants), to the number of 112, returned from Babylon with Zerubbabel (Nehemiah 7:24). In Ezra 2:18, the name is written in the synonymous form JORAH.. B.C. ante 536. Perhaps identical with the HAREPH of 1 Chronicles 2:51. (See HARUPHITE).

2. One of the chief of the people who subscribed the covenant of fidelity to Jehovah with Nehemiah (Nehemiah 10:19). B.C. cir. 410. Perhaps the name is here only a patronymic contraction for Ben-Hariph. (See HARIM).
