Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: There are no direct corresponding Strong's Greek entries for the Hebrew name Shucham, as it is a proper noun specific to the Hebrew genealogical context. However, the study of genealogical names and their Greek equivalents can be explored through broader lexical studies of tribal and familial names in the Septuagint and other Greek translations of the Hebrew Bible.

Usage: The name Shucham appears in the context of genealogical records within the Hebrew Bible. It is specifically associated with a descendant of Benjamin.

Context: Shucham is mentioned in the genealogical listings of the tribes of Israel. He is identified as a son of Dan in some traditions, but more commonly, he is recognized as a descendant of Benjamin. In Numbers 26:42, Shucham is listed as the progenitor of the Shuhamite clan: "These are the descendants of Dan by their clans: The Shuhamite clan from Shuham. These were the clans of Dan." The name is also referenced in 1 Chronicles 7:12, where the descendants of Benjamin are enumerated. The variations in the genealogical records suggest a possible conflation or textual variation in the transmission of these records. Shucham's name is emblematic of the complex and often overlapping tribal affiliations in the ancient Israelite context.
