PEDAIAH (‘J″ [Note: Jahweh.] has redeemed’). 1. Father of Joel, ruler of Manasseh, west of the Jordan, in the time of David ( 1 Chronicles 27:20 ). 2. ‘Of Rumah,’ father of Zehudah the mother of Jehoiakim ( 2 Kings 23:35 ). 3. Son of Jeconiah ( 1 Chronicles 3:15 ), in 1 Chronicles 3:19 called the father of Zerubhabel, who, however, is otherwise represented as the son of Pedaiah’s brother Shealtiel. 4. A man of the family of Parosh, who repaired the wall of Jerusalem ( Nehemiah 3:25 ). 5. One of those who stood by Ezra when he read the Law to the people ( Nehemiah 8:4; 1Es 9:44 Phaldeus ), perhaps identical with 4. 6. A Levite ( Nehemiah 13:18 ). 7. A Benjamite ( Nehemiah 11:7 ).
