Meaning: the work of the Lord · Male · 1 cross reference
This Maaseiah entry refers to the father of Shallum in Jeremiah 35:4, not to the royal, priestly, and post-exilic figures of the same name elsewhere. He belongs to the family background of the temple chamber associated with the Rechabite episode. First appears in Jer 35:4.1
AI summary: This Maaseiah matters because his single cross reference helps anchor Jeremiah's encounter with the Rechabites in the real architectural and family world of the temple. Even a paternal notice adds texture to the setting of one of Jeremiah's most memorable acted parables. Taken together, the material presents this Maaseiah as a familial source in the background of the Rechabite scene.1
