Harumaph

People · Updated 2026-05-07

Harumaph appears once in the wall-rebuilding roster of Nehemiah, named as the father of Jedaiah.

Father of Jedaiah

Among the workers who took up sections of Jerusalem's wall, Jedaiah is recorded as the son of Harumaph and as repairing the stretch directly across from his own house: "And next to them repaired Jedaiah the son of Harumaph, across from his house. And next to him repaired Hattush the son of Hashabneiah" (Neh 3:10). The patronymic is the only trace of Harumaph in the text.
