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.

Benaiah was mighty among the Thirty
Benaiah stood among the Thirty, David's mighty men, and was set over them. His son Ammizabad commanded his division in the third month. The same Benaiah son of Jehoiada heads the third division in verse 5.
