His name appears in the Old Testament, specifically in the First Book of Chronicles. The name "Zoheth" is of Hebrew origin, and while its exact meaning is not definitively known, it is often associated with the idea of "brightness" or "shining."<br><br><b>Biblical Reference:</b><br><br>Zoheth is mentioned in <a href="/1_chronicles/4-20.htm">1 Chronicles 4:20</a>, which states: "The sons of Shimon: Amnon, Rinnah, Ben-hanan, and Tilon. The descendants of Ishi: Zoheth and Ben-zoheth." <br><br><b>Genealogical Context:</b><br><br>The passage in <a href="/bsb/1_chronicles/4.htm">1 Chronicles 4</a> is part of a larger genealogical record that traces the lineage of the tribe of Judah. This chapter provides a detailed account of the descendants of Judah, one of the twelve sons of Jacob, who was a patriarch of the Israelites. The genealogies in Chronicles serve to establish the historical and familial connections of the tribes of Israel, emphasizing their heritage and the fulfillment of God's promises to His people.<br><br>Zoheth is listed as a descendant of Ishi, a lesser-known figure within the tribe of Judah. The mention of Zoheth and his relative, Ben-zoheth, highlights the continuation of the family line and the importance of maintaining tribal records. These genealogies were crucial for the Israelites, as they preserved the identity and heritage of each tribe, ensuring that the promises made to the patriarchs were remembered and honored.<br><br><b>Cultural and Theological Significance:</b><br><br>While Zoheth himself is not a prominent figure in biblical narratives, his inclusion in the genealogical records underscores the value placed on lineage and heritage in ancient Israelite society. The chronicler's attention to detail in recording these names reflects the belief in the divine orchestration of history and the fulfillment of God's covenant with His people.<br><br>The genealogies in Chronicles, including the mention of Zoheth, serve as a testament to God's faithfulness in preserving the line of Judah, from which King David and ultimately Jesus Christ would descend. This connection to the Davidic line is of particular importance in Christian theology, as it affirms the messianic prophecies and the continuity of God's redemptive plan through history.<br><br><b>Conclusion:</b><br><br>Zoheth's brief mention in the Bible may not provide extensive details about his life or deeds, but his inclusion in the genealogical records of Judah highlights the broader narrative of God's covenantal relationship with His people. Through these records, the faithfulness of God in maintaining the lineage leading to the Messiah is affirmed, offering assurance of His promises and the unfolding of His divine plan throughout the generations.<a name="hit" id="hit"></a><div class="vheading2">Hitchcock's Bible Names Dictionary</div><span class="encheading">Zoheth</span><p>separation; amazing<a name="smi" id="smi"></a><div class="vheading2">Smith's Bible Dictionary</div><span class="encheading">Zoheth</span><p>son of Ishi of the tribe of Judah.
