Contextual Overview

⁵ So my God put it in my heart to have all the people meet together. I called together all the important people, the officials, and the common people. I did this so that I could make a list of all the families. I found the family lists of the people who had been the first to return from captivity. This is what I found written there: ⁶ These are the people of the province who came back from captivity. In the past, King Nebuchadnezzar of Babylon took them as prisoners to Babylon. These people came back to Jerusalem and Judah. They all went to their own towns. ⁷ They returned with Zerubbabel, Jeshua, Nehemiah, Azariah, Raamiah, Nahamani, Mordecai, Bilshan, Mispereth, Bigvai, Nehum, and Baanah. This is the list of names and numbers of men from Israel who came back: ⁸ the descendants of Parosh 2172 ⁹ the descendants of Shephatiah 372 ¹⁰ the descendants of Arah 652 ¹¹ the descendants of Pahath Moab of the family line of Jeshua and Joab 2818 ¹² the descendants of Elam 1254 ¹³ the descendants of Zattu 845 ¹⁴ the descendants of Zaccai 760

Clarke's Notes on the Bible

Verse Nehemiah 7:7. Who came with Zerubbabel — The register which he found was that of the persons only who came long before Zerubbabel, Ezra, and Joshua the son of Josedek, which register could not answer in every respect to the state of the people then. Several persons and families were no doubt dead, and others had arrived since. Nehemiah probably altered it only in such parts, leaving the body of it as it was before; and this will account for the difference between it and the register that is found in Ezra, Ezra 2:1-58.
