ho-sha'-ya (hosha'yah, "whom Yahweh helpeth"):
(1) Father of Jezaniah (probably = Azariah, so the Septuagint; compare Jeremiah 42:1 and Jeremiah 43:2 with II Kings 25:23 and note similar letters in names in Hebrew), who with other leaders antagonized the policy and counsel of Jeremiah after the fall of Jerusalem (Jer. 42:1 through 43:7).
