JOHANAN or JEHOHANAN ("Jehovah's gift".) Equates to "John".
1. 1Ch_6:9; 1Ch_6:19. Highpriest in Rehoboam's reign, as his father (See AZARIAH was in Solomon's reign. This requires the transposition of the clause, "he it is that executed the priest's office in the temple that Solomon built in Jerusalem" from 1Ch_6:10 to follow Johanan's father "Azariah" in 1Ch_6:9. Keil objects to this, and there is probably some omission of names in the genealogy (compare 1Ki_4:2).
2. Son of Kareah. Captain of a band, a remnant of the Jewish army, after Jerusalem's overthrow by the Chaldees. (See GEDALIAH ISHMAEL JEREMIAH.) Johanan consulted the prophet that Jehovah, Jeremiah's God, might show the Jewish remnant "the way wherein to walk, and the thing to do" (Jeremiah 42); imitating pious Hezekiah's request for Isaiah's intercession (Isa_37:4), "lift up thy prayer for the remnant that is left." Johanan had already determined to go to Egypt whether it were God's will or not, but he wished if possible to have God's sanction (Jer_42:20; compare 1Ki_22:13-14). Jeremiah reminds Johanan and his company that Jehovah is their God as well as his (wholehearted obedience is therefore their part: Exo_19:5-6; 1Co_6:19-20); and that He will pray, and whatsoever Jehovah shall answer he will declare, "keeping nothing back" (Act_20:20).
They called God to witness they would obey whatever Jehovah might command. Ten days they were kept waiting, to give them time to deliberate, that the sincerity of their professions might be tested (Deu_8:2). True obedience accepts God's time, as well as God's will, at all costs (contrast 1Sa_13:8-14-15); the ardour of hasty professions soon cools down. While he was declaring God's will that they should stay where they were, Jeremiah saw indications, in their countenance and manner, of disinclination to fulfill what they had so solemnly engaged. Men want to have the reputation of piety, yet to retain their darling lusts. The very evils which they thought to escape by going they brought on themselves thereby, the sword and famine; they would have escaped them had they stayed, for God had promised it, and they might have been sure of His keeping His promise.
Change of position brings no change of disposition, and evil follows sinners wherever they go (Eze_11:8); none lose who venture on His promise. After the lesson just given in Jerusalem's overthrow, one would have thought the Jews would never more have doubted God's faithfulness to His threats as well as to His promises. But Johanan and his party charged Jeremiah with false prophecy (though their city and temple in ruins attested his truth), as if he were instigated by Baruch so as to deliver them up to the Chaldees. Bad men when resolved on a bad act never want a pretext for it. All they gained by forcing Jeremiah and Baruch to accompany them to Egypt was that Jeremiah there under the Spirit foretold their doom and that of Pharaoh upon whom they trusted instead of God.

jṓ-hā?nan (יוחנן, yōḥānān, ?Yahweh has been gracious?; Ἰωανάν, Iōanán; compare JEHOHANAN):
(1) Son of Kareah, and one of ?the captains of the forces who were in the fields? (i.e. probably guerrilla bands), who allied with Gedaliah, governor of Judah, after the fall of Jerusalem, 586 BC (2Ki_25:23; Jer 40:7 through 43:7). He warned Gedaliah of the plot of Ishmael ben Nethaniah, who was instigated by the Ammonite king Baalis, to murder the governor; but the latter refused to believe him nor would he grant Johanan permission to slay Ishmael (Jer_40:8-16). After Ishmael had murdered Gedaliah and also 70 northern pilgrims, Johanan went in pursuit. He was joined by the unwilling followers of Ishmael, but the murderer escaped. Thereupon Johanan settled at Geruth-Chimham near Bethlehem (Jer 41). As Ishmael's plan was to take the remnant to the land of Ammon, so that of Johanan and his fellow-chiefs was to go to Egypt. They consulted the Divine oracle through Jeremiah, and received the answer that they should remain in Judah (Jer 42). But the prophet was accused of giving false counsel and of being influenced by Baruch. The chiefs then resolved to go to Egypt, and forced Jeremiah and Baruch to accompany them (Jer_43:1-13).
(2) The eldest son of King Josiah (1Ch_3:15), apparently = ?Jehoahaz? (2Ki_23:30-33).
(3) Son of Elioenai, and a Davidic post-exilic prince (1Ch_3:24).
(4) Father of the Azariah who was priest in Solomon's time (1Ch_6:9, 1Ch_6:10 (Hebrew 5:35, 36)).
(5) A Benjamite recruit of David at Ziklag, but perhaps a Judean (1Ch_12:4 (Hebrew 5)).
(6) A Gadite recruit of David at Ziklag (1Ch_12:12 (Hebrew 13)).
(7) Hebrew has ?Jehohanan,? an Ephraimite chief (2Ch_28:12).
(8) A returned exile (Ezr_8:12) = ?Joannes? (1 Esdras 8:38, the King James Version ?Johannes?).
(9) Neh_12:22, Neh_12:23 = JEHOHANAN, (3).

Joha?nan (God-bestowed); one of the officers who came and recognized Gedaliah as governor of Judea after the destruction of Jerusalem, and who appears to have been the chief in authority and influence among them. He penetrated the designs of Ishmael against the governor, whom he endeavored, without success, to put upon his guard. When Ishmael had accomplished his design by the murder of Gedaliah, and was carrying away the principal persons at the seat of government as captives to the Ammonites, Johanan pursued him, and released them. Being fearful, however, that the Chaldeans might misunderstand the affair, and make him and those who were with him responsible for it, he resolved to withdraw for safety into Egypt, with the principal persons of the remnant left in the land. Jeremiah remonstrated against this decision; but Johanan would not be moved, and even constrained the prophet himself to go with them. They proceeded to Taphanes, but nothing further is recorded of Johanan. B.C. 588 (2Ki_25:23; Jer_40:8-16; Jer_41:1 to Jer_43:13).

Johanan
(Heb. Yochanan', יוֹחָנָן, a contracted form of the name JEHOHANAN; comp. also JOHN), the name of several men. SEE JEHOHANAN, 3, 4, 6.
1. (Sept. Ι᾿ωνάν v.r. Ι᾿ωανάν.) The eighth of the Gadite braves who joined David's band in the fastness of the desert of Judah (1Ch_12:12). B.C. cir. 1061.
2. (Sept. Ι᾿ωανάν.) One apparently of the Benjamite slingers and archers who joined David at Ziklag (1Ch_12:4). B.C. 1055.
3. (Sept. Ι᾿ωανάς v.r. Ι᾿ωανάν, Ι᾿ωνάς.) Son of Azariah and father of Azariah, high priests (1Ch_6:9-10, where perhaps an erroneous repetition of names has occurred). He is thought by some to have been the same with JEHOIADA (2Ch_24:15). Josephus, however (Ant. 10, 8, 6), seems to call him JORAM, and the Seder Olam JEHOAHAZ, whom it places in the reign of Jehoshaphat. SEE HIGH PRIEST.
4. (Sept. Ι᾿ωανάν.) The oldest son of king Josiah (1Ch_3:15). He must have been born in the fifteenth year of his father's age, and he seems to have been of so feeble a constitution as not to have survived his father. B.C. cir. 635-610. SEE JEHOAHAZ, 2.
5. (Sept. Ι᾿ωνά, in Jeremiah Ι᾿ωάναν and Ι᾿ωάνναν; Josephus Graecizes the name as John, Ι᾿ωάννης, Ant. 10, 9, 2). The son of Careah (Kareah), and one of the Jewish chiefs who rallied around Gedaliah on his appointment as governor by the Chaldeans (2Ki_25:23; Jer_40:8). It was he that warned Gedaliah of the nefarious plans of Ishmael, and offered to destroy him in anticipation, but the unsuspecting governor refused to listen to his prudent advice (Jer_40:13; Jer_40:16). After Gedaliah's assassination, Johanan pursued the murderer, and rescued the people taken away by him as captives to the Ammonites (Jer_41:8; Jer_41:13; Jer_41:15-16). He then applied to Jeremiah for counsel as to what course the remnant of the people should pursue, being apprehensive of severe treatment at the hands of the Chaldean authorities, as having interfered with the government (Jer_42:1; Jer_42:8); but, on hearing the divine injunction to remain in the land, he and his associates violated their promise of obedience, and persisted in retiring, with all their families and effects (carrying with them the prophet himself), to Tahpanes, in Egypt (Jer_43:2; Jer_43:4-5), where, doubtless, they were seized by the Chaldeans. B.C. 587.
6. (Sept. Ι᾿ωάναν.) Son of Katan (Hakkatan), of the sons of Azgad, who returned with 110 males from Babylon with Ezra (Ezr_8:12). B.C. 459.
7. (Sept. Ι᾿ωάναν.) A son of Tobiah, who named Meshullam's daughter (Neh_6:18). B.C. 446.
8. (Sept. Ι᾿ωανάν.) A chief priest, son (? grandson) of Eliashib, named as last of those whose contemporaries the Levites were recorded in the book of the Chronicles (Neh_12:22-23). He appears to be the same called JEHOHANAN (in the text, but Johanan in the Auth. Vers.) in Ezr_10:6; also JONATHAN, the son of Joiada and father of Jaddua, in Neh_12:11; comp. 22. B.C. prob. 459.
9. (Sept. Ι᾿ωανάμ.) The fifth named of the seven sons of Elioenai, of the descendants of Zerubbabel (1Ch_3:24). He is apparently the same with the NAHUM mentioned among the ancestry of Christ (Luk_3:25. See Strong's Harm. and Expos. of the Gosp. p. 16, 17). B.C. somewhat post 406. SEE GENEALOGY OF CHRIST.
