It is a theophoric name, incorporating the divine name Yahweh, indicating a special relationship or favor from God.<p><span class="tophdg">Cultural and Historical Background: </span>In ancient Israel, names were often given to reflect circumstances of birth, prophetic insights, or divine favor. The name Yedideyah was given by the prophet Nathan to Solomon, the son of King David and Bathsheba, signifying God's love and favor towards the child despite the complex circumstances surrounding his birth.<div class="vheading2">NAS Exhaustive Concordance</div><span class="hdg">Word Origin</span><br>from <a href="/hebrew/3039.htm">yadid</a> and <a href="/hebrew/3050.htm">Yah</a><br><span class="hdg">Definition</span><br>"beloved of Yah," a name of Solomon<br><span class="hdg">NASB Translation</span><br>Jedidiah (1).<p><div align="center"><span class="smalltext"><iframe width="100%" height="85" scrolling=no src="/nasec.htm" frameborder=0 cellpadding=0></iframe></span></div><div class="vheading2">Brown-Driver-Briggs</div> <font class="hebrew2">יְדִידְיָה</font> <font size="+1" color="#552200"><b>proper name, masculine</b></font> (<em>beloved of Yah</em>;
