Obadiah (1 Chronicles 27:19)

Obadiah (1 Chronicles 27:19) is the father of Ishmaiah, whom the verse names in connection with Zebulun. Scripture identifies this Obadiah only through that parent-child statement: “Ishmaiah son of Obadiah” (1 Chronicles 27:19).

This 1 Chronicles person is named in at least one verse, in one biblical book. The passage does not provide further details about Obadiah beyond Ishmaiah’s identification as his son.
