STEPBible TIPNR
Nethaniah was the father of Ishmael, a man of royal blood who assassinated Gedaliah, the governor appointed by the Babylonians over Judah after the fall of Jerusalem (2Ki.25.23,25; Jer.40.8,14,15; 41.1-18). Ishmael's mother was the daughter of Elnathan, an official in Jerusalem (2Ki 24:8). After the murder of Gedaliah, Ishmael fled to the Ammonites. Nethaniah is only mentioned in reference to his son Ishmael.
