However, the concept of genealogy and lineage is also present in the Greek New Testament, where names and lineages are recorded, such as in the genealogies of Jesus in Matthew 1 and Luke 3. Usage: The name Maats appears in genealogical records within the Old Testament, specifically in the context of family lineages. Context: • Maats is a name found in the genealogical listings of the descendants of Benjamin. It is mentioned in 1 Chronicles 8:30 and 9:36, where Maats is listed as one of the sons of Elpaal. These genealogies are part of the Chronicler's effort to document the lineage and tribal affiliations of the Israelites, particularly focusing on the tribe of Benjamin. The name Maats, like many in the genealogical records, serves to establish the historical and familial context of the Israelite tribes during the post-exilic period. The Chronicler's inclusion of such names underscores the importance of heritage and identity in the restoration community.
