Tsideqiyah
Zedekiah
Tsidqîyâh is a masculine personal name meaning 'Yahweh is righteousness' or 'Yahweh is just'. The name is used for multiple individuals in the Hebrew Bible, most notably a last king of Judah. It reflects a theological affirmation of divine justice or righteousness. Less commonly, the name is found among other Israelite figures. The semantic range centers on its identity as a proper name, though by its meaning it brings out concepts of justice, righteousness, or vindication associated with Yahweh.
