Kish (qish; Kis, Keis, "bow," "power") is the name of the father of the Israelite King Saul, the first king of the Israelites. Kish was a Benjamite of the family of the Matrites, and there is some question over whether he is the brother or son of Ner. The question may be resolved by reading both Ner and Kish as sons of Abiel. It appears that Kish resided at Gibeah. His sepulcher is in Zela, in the region of Benjamin in modern-day Israel. "Kish" is the name of one of Mordecai's ancestors.
