Ἰωσαφάτ G2498
Jehoshaphat, king of Judah, son of Asa, ancestor of Jesus in Matthew's genealogy
Jehoshaphat was one of Judah's godly kings, known for his judicial reforms, devotion to the Torah, and alliance (sometimes ill-advised) with the northern kingdom of Israel (1 Kings 22; 2 Chronicles 17-20). He sent teachers throughout Judah to instruct the people in the Law, and his faith is memorably displayed when he led Judah in worship before battle, trusting God to deliver them from a vast coalition of enemies (2 Chronicles 20). Matthew places him in Jesus' genealogy (1:8), linking the Messiah to this king who sought the Lord and strengthened Judah's faith.
Sentidos
1. sense 1 — The name occurs twice in Matthew 1:8, establishing Jehoshaphat as both son of Asa and father of Joram. The Hebrew יְהוֹשָׁפָט (meaning 'YHWH has judged') becomes Ἰωσαφάτ in Greek. Multilingual glosses (French 'Josaphat', German 'Josaphat') preserve the traditional rendering. His inclusion in the genealogy underscores the Davidic line's continuity through kings who, like Jehoshaphat, honored God's covenant, even as the lineage also includes less faithful rulers. 2×
