Hashabiah — 'Yahweh has reckoned'; a Levitical name borne by musicians, officers, and officials
A theophoric name meaning 'Yahweh has taken account' or 'the LORD has reckoned,' borne by at least seven distinct individuals — all of them Levites or temple officials. David's temple musician Hashabiah served in the twenty-fifth division (1 Chr 25:3, 19). Another Hashabiah administered the tribe of Levi under David (1 Chr 27:17), and yet another oversaw affairs in Hebron (1 Chr 26:30). In the post-exilic period the name proliferates among those who returned with Ezra (Ezra 8:19, 24), sealed the covenant with Nehemiah (Neh 10:11), and served in the restored temple (Neh 11:15, 22; 12:24).
