Context: Bukkijah is a biblical figure mentioned in the genealogical records of the Levites. He is identified as a descendant of Merari, one of the three sons of Levi, who was the progenitor of the Merarite clan. The name Bukkijah appears in the context of the Levitical genealogies, which are crucial for understanding the organization and duties of the Levites in the service of the Tabernacle and later the Temple. The Levites were set apart for specific religious duties, and genealogical records were meticulously maintained to ensure the purity and continuity of their service. Bukkijah's mention underscores the importance of lineage and heritage in the biblical narrative, particularly concerning those who served in sacred roles. The name itself, meaning "Yahweh has emptied," may reflect a theological or historical context, possibly indicating a period of divine judgment or a personal experience of divine intervention.
