Hatipha

Male · 2 cross references

Hatipha is a Nethinim family or servant-house name listed among the returnees in Ezra and Nehemiah. It belongs to the broad base of support families sustaining restored temple life. First appears in Ezra 2:54.1

AI summary: Hatipha matters because the cross references place the name among the temple-servant groups whose work made worship possible in practice after exile. Even an otherwise obscure name like this preserves the communal breadth of restoration. Taken together, the material presents Hatipha as a servant-house contributing to the daily functioning of post-exilic worship.1
