A man living at the time of Exile and Return, only mentioned at Neh.13.13.

Pedaiah was a Levite whom Nehemiah appointed as one of the treasurers over the storehouses, according toNehemiah 13:13. After discovering that the Levites had not been receiving their portions, Nehemiah appointed reliable men, including Pedaiah, to oversee the distribution of tithes and offerings to the Levites. This appointment suggests that Pedaiah was known for his integrity and trustworthiness. His role as a treasurer involved ensuring that the Levites received their due support for their service in the temple.
