Abdon

Abdon is mentioned in the genealogies of the tribe of Benjamin in 1 Chronicles 8:30 and 9:36. He was the son of Abiel (or 'Jeiel'), who is described as the "father of Gibeon," suggesting that he was the founder or a prominent figure in the Israelite community in Gibeon. Abdon is listed as a brother of Ner, who was the grandfather of King Saul. This places Abdon within the extended family of Saul, although his exact relationship to the king is not specified.
