4. (Sept. Μαλούχ, Vulg. Abelltch.) One of the priests who returned from Babylon with Zerubbabel (Ne 12:4). B.C. 536. The associated names would appear to indicate that he was the same with one of those who signed the sacred covenant with Nehemiah (Ne 10:4); although that would imply a very advanced age. B.C. cir. 410. He is probably the same with the son of Jonathan, elsewhere called MELICU (Ne 12:14, מלַוֹכַי Sept. Μαλούχ, Vulg. Milicho).
