Jaddai
One of the men of Nebo who took foreign wives during the post-exilic period.
Jaddai is listed in Ezra 10:43 among the Israelites who had married foreign women in violation of the law. His inclusion serves as part of the historical record documenting the spiritual reform led by Ezra to purify the community. He is mentioned only in this list of those who committed to putting away their foreign wives.
