Bible Person
Meaning: same with Ahiah · Male · 4 cross references
This Ahijah entry refers to the father of Baasha in the northern kingdom, not the prophet Ahijah of Shiloh or the priestly Ahijah. His significance comes through the violent rise of his son's dynasty. First appears in 1 Kgs 15:27.1
AI summary: This Ahijah matters because the cross references preserve him as the named father behind Baasha, one of the northern kings whose house becomes the subject of prophetic judgment. He does not act personally in the narrative, but his name remains attached to a dynastic line marked by violence and eventual destruction. That association gives the patronymic real historical weight. Taken together, the material presents this Ahijah as the remembered father behind Baasha's troubled royal line.1
