Jedi'a-el. (known of God).

1. A chief patriarch, of the tribe of Benjamin. 1 Chronicles 7:6; 1 Chronicles 7:11. It is usually assumed that Jediael is the same as Ashbel, Genesis 46:21; Numbers 26:38; 1 Chronicles 8:1, but this is not certain.

2. Second son of Meshelemiah, a Levite. 1 Chronicles 26:1-2.

3. Son of Shimri; one of the heroes of David's guard. 1 Chronicles 11:45. (B.C. 1046).

4. One of the chiefs of the thousands of Manasseh, who joined David on his march to Ziklag. 1 Chronicles 12:20. Compare 1 Samuel 30:9-10. (B.C. 1053).
