Where Mahath appears in Scripture
בֶּן-(ציף) צוּף בֶּן-אֶלְקָנָה בֶּן-מַחַת בֶּן-עֲמָשָֽׂי׃
The son of Zuph, the son of Elkanah, the son of Mahath, the son of Amasai,
וַיָּקֻמוּ הַלְוִיִּם מַחַת בֶּן-עֲמָשַׂי וְיוֹאֵל בֶּן-עֲזַרְיָהוּ מִן-בְּנֵי הַקְּהָתִי וּמִן-בְּנֵי מְרָרִי קִישׁ בֶּן-עַבְדִּי וַֽעֲזַרְיָהוּ בֶּן-יְהַלֶּלְאֵל וּמִן-הַגֵּרְשֻׁנִּי יוֹאָח בֶּן-זִמָּה וְעֵדֶן בֶּן-יוֹאָֽח׃
Then the Levites arose, Mahath the son of Amasai, and Joel the son of Azariah, of the sons of the Kohathites: and of the sons of Merari, Kish the son of Abdi, and Azariah the son of Jehalelel: and of the Gershonites; Joah the son of Zimmah, and Eden the son of Joah:
וִֽיחִיאֵל וַֽעֲזַזְיָהוּ וְנַחַת וַֽעֲשָׂהאֵל וִֽירִימוֹת וְיֽוֹזָבָד וֶֽאֱלִיאֵל וְיִסְמַכְיָהוּ וּמַחַת וּבְנָיָהוּ פְּקִידִים מִיַּד (כונניהו) כָּֽנַנְיָהוּ וְשִׁמְעִי אָחִיו בְּמִפְקַד יְחִזְקִיָּהוּ הַמֶּלֶךְ וַֽעֲזַרְיָהוּ נְגִיד בֵּית-הָֽאֱלֹהִֽים׃
And Jehiel, and Azaziah, and Nahath, and Asahel, and Jerimoth, and Jozabad, and Eliel, and Ismachiah, and Mahath, and Benaiah, were overseers under the hand of Cononiah and Shimei his brother, at the commandment of Hezekiah the king, and Azariah the ruler of the house of God.
