This Ahaz is part of the genealogy of Benjamin, highlighting the importance of lineage in Israelite culture. Genealogies served to establish tribal identities and inheritance rights. The name Jehoaddah means "Yahweh has adorned," reflecting the theophoric nature of many Hebrew names, which often included elements of God's name to signify devotion or divine blessing.<p><b>Jehoaddah was the father of Alemeth, Azmaveth, and Zimri</b><br>Jehoaddah's sons, Alemeth, Azmaveth, and Zimri, continue the genealogical record. Alemeth is also a name associated with a Levitical city in the territory of Benjamin, indicating possible connections to priestly functions or land inheritance. Azmaveth, meaning "strong as death," is a name that appears elsewhere in the Bible, including a warrior in David's army, suggesting a tradition of valor or strength. Zimri, meaning "my music" or "my praise," is a name that appears in various contexts, including a king of Israel, indicating the commonality of certain names across different tribes and periods.<p><b>and Zimri was the father of Moza</b><br>Zimri's son Moza continues the lineage, with Moza meaning "departure" or "going forth." This name may symbolize a new beginning or transition, which is a recurring theme in biblical genealogies. The continuation of the line through Moza emphasizes the importance of family heritage and the fulfillment of God's promises to the tribes of Israel.
