Commentary

These were the descendants of Ephraim by their clans
on Numbers 26:35-41
Ephraim loses eight thousand men and comes in at 32,500, twenty thousand below Manasseh. Benjamin had ten sons at Genesis 46:21 and five of them head families here, and the chapter gives no reason for the other five. Benjamin has grown by ten thousand men since Sinai even so.
This site's exposition
the Huphamite clan from Hupham
Shupham and Hupham complete the sons of Benjamin who head clans. John Gill notes that Benjamin is counted next to Ephraim because it camped under the standard of Ephraim. That camp grew most of the four, and its three tribes now number 130,800, against 108,100 at Sinai.
