A man living at the time of Divided Monarchy, only mentioned at 2Ch.17.7.

Ben-hail was a Levite who lived during the reign of King Jehoshaphat of Judah. As part of Jehoshaphat's reforms, Ben-hail was one of the Levites sent out to teach the Book of the Law in the cities of Judah (2 Ch. 17:7). This educational mission aimed to instruct the people in God's commandments and strengthen their faith. Ben-hail's role as a teacher demonstrates the importance of the Levites in preserving and propagating God's word among the people of Israel.
