<p> '''''bi''''' -'''''thı̄´a''''' ( בּתיה , <i> '''''bithyāh''''' </i> ; Βεθθιά , <i> '''''Beththiá''''' </i> ; [[Codex]] Vaticanus, Γελιά , <i> '''''Geliá''''' </i> , "daughter of Yah"): The daughter of a [[Pharaoh]] who married Mered, a descendant of [[Judah]] ( 1 Chronicles 4:18 ). Whether this Pharaoh was an [[Egyptian]] king, or whether it was in this case a [[Hebrew]] name, it is difficult to say. The name [[Bithiah]] seems to designate one who had become converted to the worship of Yahweh, and this would favor the first supposition. If, as the Revised Version (British and American) reads, the other wife of [[Mered]] is distinguished as "the Jewess" (instead of the King James Version "Jehudijah"), this supposition would receive further support. </p> | |||
