Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: There are no direct corresponding Strong's Greek entries for Chatipha, as it is a specific Hebrew proper noun without a direct Greek equivalent in the Septuagint or New Testament.

Usage: The name Chatipha appears in the context of the return from the Babylonian exile, specifically in the list of the Nethinim, who were temple servants.

Context: Chatipha is listed among the Nethinim in the post-exilic period, as recorded in the book of Ezra. The Nethinim were a group of temple servants assigned to assist the Levites in the service of the temple. They were likely descendants of the Gibeonites, who were assigned to this role during the time of Joshua. The mention of Chatipha in Ezra 2:54 highlights the continuity and restoration of temple service following the return from exile. The Nethinim, including Chatipha, played a crucial role in re-establishing the religious practices and community life in Jerusalem after the Babylonian captivity.
