Usage: Conanjah is a proper noun used as a personal name in the Hebrew Bible. It is the name of a Levite mentioned in the context of King Hezekiah's religious reforms.

Context: Conanjah is a Levite mentioned in the context of King Hezekiah's reign, specifically in the religious reforms and the organization of temple services. He is noted for his role in the administration of offerings and contributions brought to the temple. In 2 Chronicles 31:12-13, Conanjah is appointed as an overseer of the contributions, tithes, and dedicated things in the temple, working alongside his brother Shimei. This appointment highlights the importance of the Levites in maintaining the religious and ceremonial practices of the time, ensuring that the temple functioned according to the laws and traditions established in the Mosaic covenant. Conanjah's role underscores the emphasis on proper worship and the centrality of the temple in the religious life of Judah during Hezekiah's reforms.
