Bible Person

Asa

Meaning: physician; cure · Male · 1 cross reference

This Asa entry refers to the father of Berechiah in the Levitical residence lists, not to King Asa of Judah. He belongs to the post-exilic worship community centered in Jerusalem. First appears in 1 Chr 9:16.1

AI summary: This Asa matters because his single cross reference places his house within the family chains that support Levitical presence in Jerusalem after the exile. Even a brief paternal notice contributes to the rooted continuity of sacred households in the restored city. Taken together, the material presents this Asa as a family source within post-exilic worship life.1
