Meaning: the Lord that judges · Male · 1 cross reference
This Shephathiah entry refers to the Judahite ancestor in Nehemiah 11:4 and the father of Amariah, not to Jehoshaphat's son, the Benjamite supporter, or the Simeonite prince. He belongs to the family lines associated with the inhabitants of restored Jerusalem. First appears in Neh 11:4.1
AI summary: This Shephathiah matters because his single cross reference helps define one Judahite household within the restored city's settled population. Even a brief paternal notice contributes to the picture of Jerusalem being repopulated through remembered families. Taken together, the material presents this Shephathiah as a genealogical figure in post-exilic Jerusalem.1
