Maaseiah

Meaning: the work of the Lord · Male · 1 cross reference

This Maaseiah entry refers to a royal son in 2 Chronicles 28:7, not to the civic, priestly, military, and prophetic figures of the same name elsewhere. He belongs to the house of King Ahaz in one of Judah's darkest periods. First appears in 2 Chr 28:7.1

AI summary: This Maaseiah matters because his single cross reference places him among the royal casualties of Judah's humiliating defeat at the hands of Israel. The entry gives personal weight to the political and spiritual collapse of Ahaz's reign. Taken together, the material presents this Maaseiah as a royal son caught in Judah's judgment.1
