Jadon the Meronothite was one of the people who helped repair the walls of Jerusalem during Nehemiah's time.
Jadon the Meronothite was one of the participants in the great project to rebuild the walls of Jerusalem under Nehemiah, responsible for a section near the official's house (Nehemiah 3:7). The list of builders in Nehemiah 3 is a remarkable document of community cooperation, recording priests, Levites, merchants, goldsmiths, and ordinary citizens working together to restore the city's defenses. Jadon's origin in Meronoth, a location possibly in Benjamin, reflects the participation of people from the surrounding region in the Jerusalem restoration effort.
