Son of Shealtiel (or of Pedaiah per 1 Chr 3:19); Davidic governor of Judah after the return from Babylon under Cyrus 538 BC. Led the rebuilding of the second temple, completed in 516 BC. Recipient of the signet-ring oracle of Haggai 2:23. Appears in both Matthean and Lukan genealogies.

Curation status: Primeval (Genesis 1–11), patriarchs (Genesis 12–50), Exodus/Numbers, Joshua/Judges/Ruth, the united and divided monarchies (Saul, David, all kings of Judah and Israel), the writing prophets, post-exilic figures (Zerubbabel, Ezra, Nehemiah, Esther), the Holy Family, John the Baptist, the Twelve, and the early apostolic generation are all in. 2,781figures curated so far. The remaining named biblical figures (priestly genealogies in 1 Chronicles, the post-exile lists in Ezra/Nehemiah, the obscure persons in Acts and the epistles) are pending. Every claim is rigorously sourced; gaps mean “not yet curated”, not “not in scripture”.
