Bible Dictionary
Bedan
Bedan is named among Israel’s deliverers in Samuel, though his identity is uncertain; suggestions include Barak, Samson, or Abdon. Another Bedan was a descendant of Manasseh.
Biblical Usage
Samuel lists Bedan with Jerubbaal, Jephthah, and Samuel among those connected with Israel’s deliverance. The textual identification is uncertain because other ancient versions read “Barak.”
