je-di'-a-el (yedhi‘a'-el, "God makes known" (?)):

(1) A "son" of Benjamin or probably of Zebulun (1Ch 7:6,10,11). See Curtis, Chronicles, 145-49, who suggests emending the name to yachle'el, Jahleel, in agreement with Ge 46:24.

Smith's Bible Dictionary

Jediael:

(2.) Second son of Meshelemiah, a Levite (1 Chronicles 26:1-2).
