Who this is
Hillel was a Pirathonite from the hill country of Ephraim, the father of Abdon, one of the minor judges who governed Israel after Jephthah (Judges 12:13, 15). Nothing more is recorded about him, and he is not related to the later rabbinic sage of the same name who taught in Jerusalem centuries afterward.
