[many Uthai'] (Heb. Uthay', עוּתִי, helpful), the name of two Hebrews.
1. (Sept. Γνωθί v.r. Γωθί ;; Vutlg. Othel.) A person (called "the son of Ammihud"), of the family of Pharez, who resided at Jerusalem after the return from Babylon (1 Chronicles 9:4). B.C. 536. He is usually thought to be identical with ATHAIAH (See ATHAIAH) (q.v.) of the somewhat parallel passage (Nehemiah 11:4); but none of the names in his ancestry (except Pharez) agree.
