1. Son of Zerah, or Mahol: he was renowned for his wisdom, which, however, was surpassed by that of Solomon. 1 Kings 4:31; 1 Chronicles 2:6 .

2. Son of Joel, a Kohathite: he was both a seer and chief of the musicians in the sanctuary under David. His fourteen sons were also musicians. 1 Chronicles 6:33; 1 Chronicles 15:17,19; 1 Chronicles 16:41,42; 1 Chronicles 25:1-6; 2 Chronicles 5:12; 2 Chronicles 29:14; 2 Chronicles 35:15 . Psalm 88 is ascribed to Heman the Ezrahite, who some think to be the same person, but (as in the margin of the A.V.) it more probably refers to No. 1.
