Mehetabel
Hawker's Poor Man's Concordance And Dictionary
The son of Delaiah, Nehemiah 6:10. It seems a compound of three words—Mah-to-bel, How good is God! Perhaps this name was given at a time of some remarkable providence, as we do not find the name any where else in Scripture for the name of a man; and this was at a time of peculiar exercises of Israel. It is further remarkable, that we have the same name for a woman, Genesis 36:39.
