Also known as Pathrusites

The Pathrusim were a people group listed among the descendants of Mizraim, son of Ham, in Gen.10.14 and 1Ch.1.12. Mizraim was the ancestor of the Egyptians and other related peoples. The Pathrusim are mentioned only in these genealogical lists and are not referred to elsewhere in the Bible. They were probably inhabitants of the region of Pathros in Upper Egypt, which is mentioned several times in the prophets as a place where Jews had settled (Isa.11.11; Jer.44.1,15; Ezk.29.14; 30.14).
