Bithiah

People · Updated 2026-05-07

Bithiah is identified in the Judahite genealogy as a daughter of Pharaoh and the wife of Mered.

Daughter of Pharaoh

Within the line of Judah, the chronicler records: "And his Jewish wife bore Jered the father of Gedor, and Heber the father of Soco, and Jekuthiel the father of Zanoah. And these are the sons of Bithiah the daughter of Pharaoh, whom Mered took" (1Ch 4:18). The notice places Bithiah inside an Israelite household by marriage and attaches her sons to the Judahite line; she is named only here.
