Usage: Piltai is used as a proper noun, specifically a personal name, in the Hebrew Bible. Context: Piltai is mentioned in the context of the post-exilic period, specifically in the book of Nehemiah. He is identified as one of the priests who returned to Jerusalem with Zerubbabel. Piltai is listed among the priests who were heads of their families during the time of Joiakim, the son of Jeshua. This period is significant as it marks the restoration of the Jewish community and religious practices following the Babylonian exile. The mention of Piltai in Nehemiah 12:17 highlights the continuity of the priestly lineage and the re-establishment of temple worship in Jerusalem. The name Piltai, meaning "my deliverance," reflects the broader theme of deliverance and restoration that characterizes the post-exilic narrative.
