Bible Person

Baana

Male · 1 cross reference

This Baana entry refers to the father of Zadok the wall-repairer in Nehemiah, not to Solomon's district officer of the same name. He belongs to the family background of Jerusalem's restoration workforce. First appears in Neh 3:4.1

AI summary: This Baana matters because his single cross reference survives through Zadok's participation in rebuilding Jerusalem's wall. Even a brief paternal notice helps anchor the work of restoration in real households and inherited identities. Taken together, the material presents this Baana as a family source within the post-exilic rebuilding community.1
