Contextual Overview

15 Only Yonatan the son of ‘Asah'el and Yachz'yah the son of Tikvah, supported by Meshulam and Shabtai the Levi, opposed this. 16 The exiles did as agreed. ‘Ezra the cohen chose heads of fathers' clans by name, and they began their sessions to look into the matter on the first day of the tenth month. 17 They finished dealing with all the men who had married foreign women by the first day of the first month. 18 Among the cohanim were found these who had married foreign women: of the sons of Yeshua the son of Yotzadak and his brothers: Ma‘aseiyah, Eli‘ezer, Yariv and G'dalyah. 19 They promised that they would send their wives away; and since they were guilty, they offered a ram from the flock for their guilt. 20 Of the sons of Immer: Hanani and Z'vadyah; 21 of the sons of Harim: Ma‘aseiyah, Eliyah, Sh'ma‘yah, Yechi'el and ‘Uziyah; 22 of the sons of Pash'chur: Elyo‘einai, Ma‘aseiyah, Yishma‘el, N'tan'el, Yozavad and El‘asah. 23 Of the L'vi'im: Yozavad, Shim‘i, K'layah (also known as K'lita), P'tachyah, Y'hudah and Eli‘ezer. 24 Of the singers: Elyashiv.

Barnes' Notes on the Bible

Compare with the list in Ezra 2:0.

Ezra 10:19

They gave their hands - i. e., “solemnly pledged themselves” (compare the marginal references).

Ezra 10:44

The guilty persons, it would seem, were 113 in number. They comprised 4 members of the high priest’s family, 13 other priests, 10 Levites, and 86 lay Israelites belonging to at least 10 distinct families. The fact noted in the second clause of the verse must have increased the difficulity of Ezra’s task.
