Dan

Generation 2 from Adam

Biography

The first son born to Jacob through Rachel's handmaid Bilhah, Dan's name means 'judge' or 'he has vindicated.' Rachel considered his birth a vindication from God. Dan became the father of the tribe that would later be associated with idolatry but also produced the judge Samson.
The tribe of Dan later struggled with idolatry and is notably absent from the 144,000 in Revelation, yet produced mighty deliverers like Samson.
