Zebadiah

Meaning: portion of the Lord; the Lord is my portion · Male · 1 cross reference

This Zebadiah entry refers to a son of Beriah in 1 Chronicles 8:15, not to the rulers, Levites, porters, or warriors of the same name elsewhere. He belongs to the compact genealogical material preserving Benjamin's internal branches. First appears in 1 Chr 8:15.1

AI summary: This Zebadiah matters because his single cross reference contributes one more name to Benjamin's densely layered family record. Even a brief genealogical entry helps preserve the continuity and detail of the tribe's internal structure. Taken together, the material presents this Zebadiah as a Benjaminite family figure in the preserved genealogy.1
