He was a descendant of Perez

on 1 Chronicles 27:3-9

Benaiah is the man already known from the mighty men, and verse 6 says he “was mighty among the Thirty and was over the Thirty”. Asahel heads the fourth division, though he died by Abner's hand at the start of David's reign. The honor passes to his son Zebadiah.
