Pelatiah
1. 1Ch 3:21.
2. 1Ch 4:42.
3. Neh 10:22.
4. One of the 25 princes; ringleader of the scorners “devising mischief.” Like Ananias (Act 5:5) stricken dead; an earnest of the destruction of the rest, as Ezekiel foretold (Eze 11:1-13). The prophet fell on his face thereupon saying, “Ah! Lord God! wilt Thou make a full end of the remnant of Israel?” The people regarded Pelatiah as a mainstay of the city. His name suggested hope, from paalat “to escape,” or Yah pileet, “God delivers.” Is that hope to be disappointed? asks Ezekiel; is his death a token that all, even the remnant, shall be destroyed?
