Konanyahu (Conaniah), a Levitical official over tithes and offerings in the time of Hezekiah and Josiah.
A Levitical proper name meaning 'Yahweh has established,' borne by at least one (possibly two) figures in Chronicles. The most prominent Konanyahu served under King Hezekiah as chief overseer of the tithes, contributions, and dedicated things brought into the temple (2 Chr 31:12-13). A second Konanyahu appears among the Levitical chiefs who contributed livestock for Josiah's great Passover celebration (2 Chr 35:9). The name's theophoric element -yahu affirms divine establishment, fitting for officials entrusted with administering what was consecrated to God.
Senses
1. Konanyahu / Conaniah (proper noun) — A Hebrew theophoric name ('Yahweh has established') designating Levitical leaders in Chronicles. English consistently renders 'Conaniah' or 'Konaniah,' while Spanish uses 'Kananyahu/Konanyahu.' The primary bearer oversaw temple storehouses of tithes and offerings under Hezekiah (2 Chr 31:12-13); a second appears as a Levitical contributor at Josiah's Passover (2 Chr 35:9). The LXX varies between Chōnenias and Chōmenias, reflecting scribal uncertainty about the double-nun cluster. 6×
