It is used to denote lineage and tribal affiliation, emphasizing the importance of family and heritage in the Israelite community.

The mention of specific clans, like the Shiphites, highlights the detailed genealogical records maintained by the Israelites, which were essential for preserving tribal boundaries and inheritance rights.
