Two men bearing this name: an Ephraimite leader and a priestly ancestor.
☩Ephraimite Leader
'Berechiah the son of Meshillemoth... stood up against them' who wanted to keep Judean captives (2 Chronicles 28:12). He opposed enslaving fellow Israelites, showing compassion. A different Meshillemoth appears in priestly genealogy (Nehemiah 11:13).
