Jaaziah

International Standard Bible Encyclopedia

jā - a - zı̄´a ( יעזיּהוּ , ya‛ăzı̄yāhū , "Yah strengthens"): In 1 Chronicles 24:26 , 1 Chronicles 24:27 , a Levite, "son" of Merari. But the Massoretic Text is corrupt. The Septuagint's Codex Vaticanus reads (Ὀζειά , Ozeiá ), which some take to suggest Uzziah (compare 1 Chronicles 27:25 ); see Curtis, Critical and Exegetical Commentary on the Books of Chronicles , 274-75; See Kittel, at the place.
