Jeberechiah

Jeberechiah was the father of Zechariah, a prophet during King Hezekiah's reign who witnessed God's faithfulness in Judah's spiritual restoration.

Overview

Jeberechiah appears in Scripture as the father of the prophet Zechariah during the reign of King Hezekiah of Judah. His son served as a faithful witness to God's work during a period of significant religious reform and renewal in the kingdom.

Key Scriptures

"Then I took with me Uriah the priest and Zechariah the son of Jeberechiah, faithful witnesses, to record this for me" (Isaiah 8:2, ESV).

While Jeberechiah himself is mentioned sparingly in Scripture, his son Zechariah is commended as a faithful witness to God's covenant promises during Isaiah's prophetic ministry.

Application

Consider how godly parents can raise children who become faithful witnesses to God's truth in their own generation, following the pattern of Jeberechiah's son.
