Hezron (Hebrew: חֶצְרוֹן,  H̱etsron,  Ḥeṣrôn; "enclosed") is a name which occurs several times in the Hebrew Bible.

It may refer to:

  • A plain in the south of Judah, west of Kadesh-barnea (Joshua 15:3)
  • Father of Amminadab and grandfather to Nahshon. Nahshon was Elisheba's brother and brother in law of Aaron. (Exodus 6:23)
  • Was appointed by Moses, as ordered by God, to be Prince over the tribe of Judah. He was a direct decendant of Judah, Perez, Hezron (not Hezron of the tribe of Reuben {Gen 46:12}).
  • Tribal leader when Moses led the Israelites out of Egypt. Died in the wilderness.
  •  Hirsch, Emil G. (1901–1906). "Hezron". In Singer, Isidore; et al. Jewish Encyclopedia. New York: Funk & Wagnalls Company.
