Bible Person

Hashabniah

Male · 1 cross reference

This Hashabniah entry refers to the father of Hattush the wall-builder in Nehemiah 3, not to the Levite in Nehemiah 9. He belongs to the family background of Jerusalem's rebuilding effort. First appears in Neh 3:10.1

AI summary: This Hashabniah matters because his single cross reference survives through his son's direct work on Jerusalem's wall. Even a paternal notice helps ground the restoration narrative in remembered households and local responsibility. Taken together, the material presents this Hashabniah as a familial source in the rebuilding of the city.1
