1. Joah (proper name) — The proper noun Yōʾāḥ (יוֹאָח), meaning 'Yahweh is brother,' used for several individuals in the Hebrew Bible: (1) Joah son of Asaph the recorder under Hezekiah (2 Kgs 18:18,26,37; Isa 36:3,11,22), (2) Joah son of Zimmah, a Levite in the time of Hezekiah (2 Chr 29:12), (3) Joah son of Obed-edom, a gatekeeper (1 Chr 26:4), and (4) Joah son of Joahaz the recorder under Josiah (2 Chr 34:8). English renders 'Joah' and 'Yoach'; Spanish 'Joá/Joa/Yoaj/Joah'; Arabic يُوآخُ/يُوأَخُ (Yūʾākhu); Korean 요아/요아하이 (Yoa); Swahili 'Yoa'; Hindi योआख/योआह. The two clusters differ only in the presence or absence of the conjunction waw (and-Yoach vs. Yoach), which is a grammatical distinction, not a semantic one. 11×
