Meshezabeel

Cyclopedia of Biblical, Theological and Ecclesiastical Literature

(Hebrews Mesheyzabel', מְשַׁיזִבְאֵל, whose deliverer is God; Sept. Μαζαβήλ, Μεσωζεβήλ, and Βασηζά v.r. Μασεζειήλ ; Vulg. Mesezebel and Mesizebel), one of the chief Israelites that subscribed the sacred covenant after the captivity, BC. cir. 410 (Nehemiah 10:21); apparently the same with the father of Pethahiah the Zerahite of Judah, which latter had previously (BC. cir. 440) assisted in the administration of civil affairs (Nehemiah 11:24); and perhaps the same with the father of Berechiah and grandfather of Meshullam, which last had (BC. 446) assisted in repairing the walls of Jerusalem (Nehemiah 3:4).
