Jadon
JADON.A Meronothite, who took part in rebuilding the wail of Jerusalem (Neh 3:7). The title Meronothite occurs again 1Ch 27:30, but a place Meronoth is nowhere named. According to Jos. [Note: Josephus.] (Ant. VIII. viii. 5, ix. 1), Jadon was the name of the man of God sent from Judah to Jeroboam (1Ki 13:1-34).

Jadon
jadon (, yadhon, perhaps he will judge or plead): One who helped to rebuild the wall of Jerusalem in company with the men of Gibeon and of Mizpah (Neh 3:7). He is called the Meronothite, and another Meronothite is referred to in 1Ch 27:30, but there is no mention of a place Meronoth. Jadon is the name given by Josephus (Ant., VIII, viii, 5; ix, 1) to the man of God from Judah who confronted Jeroboam as he burned incense at the altar in Bethel, and who was afterward deceived by the lie of the old prophet (1 Ki 13). Josephus may probably have meant Iddo the seer, whose visions concerning Jeroboam (2Ch 9:29) led to his being identified in Jewish tradition with the man of God, from Judah.
