1. (Sept. Μαθάν, Ματθάν v. r. Μαγθάν and Μαχάν.) The priest of Baal slain before his idolatrous altar during the reformation instituted by Jehoiada (2Ki_11:18; 2Ch_23:17). B.C. 876. He probably accompanied Athaliah from Samaria, and would thus be the first priest of the Baal-worship which Jehoram, king of Judah, following the steps of his father-in-law Ahab, established at Jerusalem (2Ch_21:6; 2Ch_21:13). Josephus (Ant. 9:7, 3) calls him Μααθάν (Smith).

3. (Ματθάν, Auth.Vers. Matthan.) The son of Eleazar and father of Jacob, which last was father of Joseph, the husband of the Virgin Mary (Mat_1:15). According to tradition he was a priest (which disagrees with his tribal descent), and father of Anna, the mother of the same Mary (Niceph. Hist. Ev. 2:3). B.C. considerably ante 40.
