Athaiah (a personal name meaning possibly 'Yahweh has helped')
A personal name appearing in Nehemiah 11:4, identifying a descendant of Judah who resettled in Jerusalem after the Babylonian exile. The name is textually problematic, with parallel passages and ancient versions showing variation. The Septuagint offers 'Athea,' while 1 Chronicles 9:4 has the parallel form 'Uthai.' Such variation was common in the transmission of genealogical lists.
