Bariah

Bariah was a descendant of King David, listed among the royal genealogy of 1 Chronicles 3:22 in the post-exilic section tracing David's line through Zerubbabel's era. His name appears in the generation following Shecaniah son of Shemaiah, indicating that the Davidic line continued to be carefully documented by the Chronicler long after the Babylonian exile. His name means 'fugitive' or 'one who flees.'
