JAAZANIAH

1. Son of Hoshaiah, who was a Maacathite and a leader in the armies of Judah at the beginning of the exile. These troops received assurance of safety in return for loyalty to the Babylonians (2 Kgs 25:23). Jaazaniah is alternately called Jezaniah in Jeremiah 40:8 and Azariah in Jeremiah 42:1 (NLT mg) and 43:2.

2. Son of Jeremiah (not the prophet), who was taken by Jeremiah the prophet into the Lord’s house, where he refused to drink wine because of the command of his ancestor Jonadab the Recabite (Jer 35:3-11).

3. Shaphan’s son, who led a group of elders in worshiping idols in the temple (Ez 8:11).

4. Azzur’s son and one of a group of 25 men seen by Ezekiel in a vision who gave bad counsel and plotted evil in Jerusalem near the time of the exile (Ez 11:1).
