A [[Jew]] from Babylon, from whom and [[Tobijah]] and [[Jedaiah]] the gold and silver which they presented toward building the temple were to be taken, and crowns made for Joshua's head, afterward to be deposited in the temple as a memorial of the donors (as Cornelius' prayers and ahns of faith "came up for a memorial before God," Acts 10:4), until [[Messiah]] should come. [[Heldai]] means "robust"; called also [[Helem]] (Zechariah 6:10; Zechariah 6:14). </p>

<p> <strong> HELDAI. 1. </strong> The captain of the military guard appointed for the twelfth monthly course of the [[Temple]] service ( 1 Chronicles 27:15 ). He is probably to be identified with ‘ <strong> [[Heleb]] </strong> the son of [[Baanah]] the Netophathite,’ one of David’s thirty heroes ( 2 Samuel 23:29 ). In the parallel list ( 1 Chronicles 11:30 ) the name is more correctly given as <strong> [[Heled]] </strong> . The form <em> [[Heldai]] </em> is supported by Zechariah 6:10 , and should probably be restored in the other two passages. <strong> 2. </strong> According to Zechariah 6:10 , one of a small band who brought gifts of gold and silver from [[Babylon]] to those of the exiles who had returned under Zerubbabel. From these gifts Zechariah was told to make a crown for Joshua the high priest, which was to be placed in the Temple as a memorial of Heldai and his companions. In v. 14 <strong> [[Helem]] </strong> is clearly an error for Heldai. </p>

<p> 1. A Netophathite, a descendant of Othniel, and one of David's captains. 1 Chronicles 27:15 . </p> <p> 2. One who returned from exile, Zechariah 6:10 (probably the same as HELEMin Zechariah 6:14 ), who apparently had gold and silver of which crowns were made, to be 'for a memorial in the temple of the Lord.' </p>

<p> Hel'da-i. (worldly). </p> <p> 1. The twelfth captain, of the monthly courses for the [[Temple]] service. 1 Chronicles 27:15. (B.C. 1014). </p> <p> 2. An Israelite, who seems to have returned from the captivity. Zechariah 6:10. (B.C. 520). </p>
