Bible Person

Pelatiah

Meaning: let the Lord deliver; deliverance of the Lord · Male · 1 cross reference

This Pelatiah entry refers to a son of Hananiah and grandson of Zerubbabel in 1 Chronicles 3:21, not to the covenant signer or the Simeonite figure. He belongs to the generations through which the royal line is remembered after exile. First appears in 1 Chr 3:21.1

AI summary: This Pelatiah matters because his single cross reference extends the Davidic family record into the quieter post-exilic generations. Even a brief listing contributes to the continuity of the preserved royal line. Taken together, the material presents this Pelatiah as a descendant within the house of David.1
