Bible Person
Meaning: the poor of the Lord · Male · 1 cross reference
This Delaiah entry refers to the father of the Shemaiah involved in Nehemiah 6, not to the priestly-course head. He belongs to the family background of a compromised prophetic or advisory figure during the rebuilding period. First appears in Neh 6:10.1
AI summary: This Delaiah matters because his single cross reference survives through a son who becomes part of the pressure and intrigue directed at Nehemiah. Even a brief paternal note helps anchor that episode in a remembered household. Taken together, the material presents this Delaiah as a familial source within the tensions surrounding Jerusalem's rebuilding.1
