Jedaiah
Jedaiah
(Heb. Yedayah’), the name of several men, of different form in the original.
1. (, tinvoker of Jehovah; Sept. v.r. and v) Son of Shimri and father of Allon, of the ancestors of Ziza, a chief Simeonite who migrated to the valley of Gedor (1Ch 4:37). B.C. long ante 711.
2. (Same Hebrew name as preceding; Sept. Ieiala.) Son of Harumaph, and one of those that repaired the walls of Jerusalem after the exile (Neh 3:10). B.C. 446.
3. (, knowing Jehovah; Sept. ) The chief of the second division of priests as arranged by David (1Ch 24:7). B.C. 1014.
4. (Same Heb. name as preceding; Sept. , , , v, v, , , ) A priest who officiated in Jerusalem after the exile (1Ch 9:10; Neh 11:10; in which latter passage, however, he is styled the son of Joiarib, evidently the same as the Jehoiarib with whom he is merely associated in the former passage). From Ezr 2:36; Neh 7:39, he appears to have belonged to the family of Jeshua (973 of his relatives having returned with him from Babylon), so that he is probably the same with the priest Jedaiah enumerated (Neh 12:6) amongst the contemporaries of Jeshua who returned with Zerubbabel (the name apparently being repeated in Neh 12:7; comp. Neh 12:19; Neh 12:21, where the same repetition occurs, although with the mention of different sons), and probably also identical with the Jedaiah whom the prophet was directed to crown with the symbolical wreath (Zec 6:10; Zec 6:14). B.C. 536-520.

Jedaiah (1)
Head of the second course of priests, under David (1Ch 24:7). Some “children of Jedaiah of the house of Jeshua, 973,” returned from Babylon (Ezr 2:36; Neh 7:39). These are thus distinguished from a second priestly “house” named “Jedaiah” (Neh 12:6-7; Neh 12:19; Neh 12:21). Jehoiarib and Jedaiah represent two classes of the priesthood (1Ch 9:10). It is a corrupt reading in Neh 11:10 which makes Jedaiah son of Joiarib. Though Joiarib’s was the first course, Jedaiah’s, as having for their head Jeshua (he being high-priest under Zerubbabel), is named first.
