Asher Richardson
Asher ( ''’Āšēr''), in the Book of Genesis, was the younger of the two sons of Jacob and Zilpah, and Jacob's eighth son overall. He was the founder of the Israelite Tribe of Asher. Name The text of the Torah states that the name אָשֵׁר ''Asher'' means "happy" or "blessing", implying a derivation from the Hebrew term ''osher'' in two variations: ''beoshri'' (meaning ''in my good fortune''), and ''ishsheruni''. The Bible states that at his birth, Leah exclaimed, "Happy am I! for the daughters will call me happy: so she called his name Asher", meaning "happy" (Genesis 30:13). Indeed, the name אָשֵׁר ''Asher'' is a typical Semitic name, deriving from the Hebrew root ''ʔ-š-r'' "to be happy" and the stative nominal stem. Biblical narrative Asher and his four sons and daughter settled in Canaan. On his deathbed, Jacob blessed Asher by saying that "his bread shall be fat, and he shall yield royal dainties" (Gen. 49:20). Moses said of Asher: "May Asher be blessed abo ...
