Contextual Overview
5Then my God put it into my mind to assemble the nobles, the officials, and the people to be registered by genealogy. I found the genealogical record of those who came back first, and I found the following written in it: 6These are the people of the province who went up among the captive exiles deported by King Nebuchadnezzar of Babylon. Each of them returned to Jerusalem and Judah, to his own town. 7They came with Zerubbabel, Jeshua, Nehemiah, Azariah, Raamiah, Nahamani, Mordecai, Bilshan, Mispereth, Bigvai, Nehum, and Baanah. 8Parosh’s descendants 2,172 9Shephatiah’s descendants 372 10Arah’s descendants 652 11Pahath-moab’s descendants: 12Elam’s descendants 1,254 13Zattu’s descendants 845 14Zaccai’s descendants 760
Bible Verse Review
from Treasury of Scripure Knowledge
Here Jerome adds, in the Vulgate, Hucusque refertur quid in commentario scriptum fuerit; exin Nehemie historia texitur̀ "Thus far do the words extend which were written in the register; what follows belongs to the history of Nehemiah." This addition is not found in the Hebrew, or any ancient version: it is also wanting in the Paris and Complutensian Polyglotts; but is found in the Editio Prima of the Vulgate. What follows, however, seems to relate to a distinct oblation from that recorded in Ezra; and was probably made after the people were registered by Nehemiah, who was the Tirshatha, or governor, at this time, as Zerubbabel had been at the first return of the Jews from captivity. Blessed be God that our faith and hope are not built upon the niceties of names and numbers, genealogy and chronology, but on the great things of the law and gospel. Whatever is given to the work of God and his cause will surely be remembered by him - Hebrews 6:10.

Clarke's Notes on the Bible
Verse 69. Their camels, four hundred thirty and five — After this verse St. Jerome has inserted the following words in the Vulgate: -
Hucusque refertur quid in commentario scriptum
fuerit; exin Nehemiae historia texitur.
"Thus far do the words extend which were written
in the register; what follows belongs to the
history of Nehemiah."
But this addition is not found either in the Hebrew or any of the ancient versions. It is wanting also in the Complutum and Paris Polyglots, but is in the Editio Prima of the Vulgate.
