expression of censure; and further, that many who cen- sured Hampden " objected to the university as au arbi- ter of doctrine in the case of Tract xc, and of Mr. Ward's Ideal of the Church." The opposition, as in the former case, arose mainly from political opponents and from Tractarians. The government refused to yield, and Dr. Hampden was installed as bishop of Here ford, and thence- forth devoted himself to his episcopal duties, the attacks npon him gradually ceasing. Hedied A]iril2o, l.siis. His position was that of a moderate churchman, anil the ex- pression of liis views at this day could hardly ))rovoke so fierce an opposition as in 18o().

Hamu'el (Heb. ChammueV, 'bx^53'n, heat \^ arujer or lifilif] of God; Sept. 'A/(o?i//A,Yulg. //(/m«f?), the son of ]\Iishma and (apparently) father of Zacchur, of the tribe of Simeon (1 Chron. iV, 26). B.C. ante 1046.
Ha'mul (Heb. Chamul', ^^rn, spared; Sept. 'l£- liov>]\), the second of the two sons of Pharez, son of Ju- dah (1 Chron. ii, 5). He could not have been born, however, before the migration of Jacob into Egypt (as appears to be stated in Gen. xlvi, 12), since Pharez was not at that time grown up (Gen. xxxviii, 1). His de- scendants were called Hajiulites (Numb, xxvi, 21). B.C. between 1870 and 1856.
Ha'mulite (Heb. Chamuli', "^^^irr!, Sept. 'If/(ou- jjXi), a descendant of Hajiul (q. v.), the grandson of Judah (Numb, xxvi, 21).
Hamix'tal (Heb. ChamutaV ,^'^^"0^, kinsman of the dew; Sept. 'A//(-aX, but in Jer. lii, 1 'A /tirnnX, Vulgate Amital; but the Heb. text has h'^'-'-q'n, Chamital' [of the same import], in 2 Kings xxiv, 18 ; Jer. lii, 1), the daughter of Jeremiah of Libnah, wife of king Josiah and mother of king Jehoahaz (2 Kings xxiii, 31), also of king Zedekiah (2 Kings xxiv, 18 ; Jer. lii, 1). B.C. 632-619.
Hanam'eel (Heb. Chanamel', ViXpan, perh, i. q. Ilananeel; Sept, 'Ai-'a^£/;X,Vulg. Ilanameel), son of Shal- lum and cousin of Jeremiah, to whom, before the siege of Jerusalem, he sold a field which he possessed in Ana- thoth, a town of the Levites (Jer. xxxii, 6-12). If this field belonged to Hauameel as a Levite, the sale of it would imply that an ancient law liad fallen into disuse (Lev. XXV, 34) ; but it is i)ossible that it may have been the property of Hauameel in right of his mother. Com- pare the case of Barnabas, who was also a Levite ; and the note of (irotius on Acts iv, 37. Henderson (on Jer. xxxii, 7) supposes that a portion of the Levitical estates might be sold within the tribe. Fairbairn fs. v.) sug- gests that as this was a typical act, the ordinary civil
rules do not apply to it. The transaction, however, was conducted witli all tlie forms of legal transfer, at the special instance of Jehovah, and was intended to evince the certainty of restoration from the approaching exile by showing that possessions which could be established by documents would yet be of future value to the pos- sessor (Jer. xxxii, 13-15). B.C. 589.— Kitto, s. v.,
Ha'nan (Heb. Chanan', '311, merciful, or perh. rather an abbreviation of 'pnil, later Jo/<h [see Ananias; Ha- NANi, etc.] ; Sept. 'Avdv, but in Jer. xxxv, 4 'kvaviar), the name of at least seven men. See also Baal-IL\- nan; Ben-Hanan; Elon-betii-Hanan.
1. One of the sons (or descendants) of Shashak, a chief of the tribe of Benjamin resident at Jerusalem (1 Chron. viii, 23). B.C. apparently between 1612 and 1093.
2. Son of INIaachah, and one of David's heroes (1 Chron. xi, 43). B.C. 1046.
3. Father of Igdaliah, " a man of God;" in the cham- ber of his sons Jeremiah tested the fidelity of the Kech- abites (Jer. xxxv, 4). B.C. ante 606.
4. The last named of the six sons of Azel the Benja- mite (1 Chron. viii, 38 ; ix, '14). B.C. cir. 588.
5. One of the Nethinim whose family returned from the captivity with Zerubbabel (Ezra ii, 40 ; Neh. vii, 49). B.C. ante 536.
6. One of the Levites who assisted Ezra in expound- ing the law to the people (Neh. viii, 7 ; comp. ix, 4, 5). He also subscribed the sacred covenant with Nehemiah (Neh. X, 10). From Neh. xiii, 13, it appears that he was the son of Zaccur, and, on account of his integrity, he was one of those appointed to distribute the Leviti- cal revenues among his brethren. B.C. cir. 410.
