Jaaziah was a Levite, a descendant of Merari through his son Beno, who served during King David's reign.
Jaaziah was a Levite, a son of Merari, who is listed in 1 Chronicles 24:26–27 as the father of four sons: Beno, Shoham, Zaccur, and Ibri. These sons received assignments by lot for Levitical service alongside the other Levitical divisions during the reign of King David. Jaaziah is notable as a son of Merari not mentioned in the earlier Levitical genealogies of Numbers, suggesting either an additional branch of the Merarite family or a divergent genealogical tradition preserved by the Chronicler.
