Gedaliah is spoken of in the Bible at Jeremiah 38: 1, as is Yehukhal ​ — called “Jucal [shortened form of Jehucal (Yehukhal)] the son of Shelemiah ” — ​ whose name was found on a bulla in the same area in 2005.
Gedaljast räägitakse piiblitekstis Jeremija 38: 1 – samas tekstis, kus räägitakse ka Jehukalist ehk „Juukalist [nime Jehukal lühivorm], Selemja pojast ”, kelle nimega pitser leiti samast piirkonnast aastal 2005.
