(ih li' uh thath) Personal name meaning, “my God has come.” A Temple musician appointed under David to play and prophesy (1 Chronicles 25:4 ). He headed a division of Temple workers (1 Chronicles 25:27 , where the Hebrew spelling of the name varies slightly). Many scholars of the Hebrew language think the names of the last nine sons of Heman in 1 Chronicles 25:4 originally formed a verse of a Hebrew psalm in which Eliathah would have meant, “My God are you.”
