Wife of Hezekiah and mother of Manasseh (2 Kings 21:1¹Manasseh was twelve years old when he began to reign, and reigned fifty and five years in Jerusalem. And his mother's name was Hephzi-bah. (2 Kings 21:1)). It is used symbolically for the name to be given to Jerusalem when it comes again into blessing, signifying “My delight is in her” (Isa. 62:4⁴Thou shalt no more be termed Forsaken; neither shall thy land any more be termed Desolate: but thou shalt be called Hephzi-bah, and thy land Beulah: for the Lord delighteth in thee, and thy land shall be married. (Isaiah 62:4)).
