Man living at the time of the Patriarchs
Elam
Shem’s eldest son (Genesis 10:22), and the ancestor of the Elamites, who lived east of Babylon. Chedorlaomer, king of Elam, led the four kings whom Abram defeated to rescue Lot (Genesis 14:1–16). Elam is also the region around Susa (Daniel 8:2), and Elamites were among those who heard the apostles at Pentecost (Acts 2:9).
