Eliashib

Meaning: the God of conversion · Male · 1 cross reference

This Eliashib entry refers to a descendant in the Davidic genealogy of 1 Chronicles 3, not to the priestly and post-exilic figures of the same name. He belongs to the later generations through which the royal line is remembered. First appears in 1 Chr 3:24.1

AI summary: This Eliashib matters because his single cross reference extends the Davidic family record into the quieter generations after the monarchy's collapse. Even a brief listing contributes to the continuity of the preserved royal line. Taken together, the material presents this Eliashib as a descendant within the house of David.1
