It appears in the context of the priestly and Levitical lineages, indicating its association with religious duties and heritage. The name is mentioned in 2 Chronicles 28:12, where Meshillemoth is identified as the father of Berechiah, one of the leaders who opposed King Ahaz's idolatrous practices.
