Jedaiah was a priest of ancient Israel after the order of Aaron, during the reign of King David in the 10th century BCE.
The biblical passage of 1 Chronicles 24 documents the division of the priests during the reign of King David.
These priests were all descendants of Aaron, who had four sons: Nadab, Abihu, Eleazar and Ithamar.
The passage states that this was done because of the greater number of leaders among Eleazar's descendants.
Nehemiah 3:10 mentions Jedaiah, son of Harumaph, as one who made repairs in the wall at Jerusalem near his own house.
