The Lord is just
Zedekiah is a masculine name, whose claim to fame is the twentieth and final King of Judah. In the Hebrew Bible, Zedekiah—given name, Mattaniah—ascended to the throne under an oath of allegiance to the Babylonian king. When he conspired to revolt against them, it didn’t end happily. But by choosing Zedekiah for your little one, you get to fire them up to achieve their goals and fight for what they believe in with newer resolve. And the moniker, with its meaning “the Lord is just”, will be able to help them through all the ups and downs of life.
