Meaning and history
Jeriah is a modern English biblical-style name that can represent the Hebrew name Jeriah or Jerijah. In the Hebrew Bible, Jeriah is a Levite of the Hebronite clan who served during King David’s reign. The name is generally interpreted as “taught by Yahweh” or “Yahweh sees,” but Hebrew analyses differ depending on the underlying spelling, so certainty is limited. Modern use is rare. American football player Jeriah Horne is a documented bearer, though prominent examples remain few.
