Jeshebeab was the head of the fourteenth division of priests during the time of David.

Jeshebeab was the head of the fourteenth priestly division organized by King David for the orderly rotation of temple service (1 Chronicles 24:13). The twenty-four priestly courses were established so that every division would serve in Jerusalem in turn, ensuring continuous and orderly worship throughout the year. Jeshebeab is mentioned only in this organizational list and is known solely as the eponymous head of his division.
