Sherebiah, Hashabiah, and ten of their brethren with them; these men named were Levites, and not priests, Ezra 8:18 and therefore the copulative "and" must be supplied:
and Sherebiah, c. or with the twelve priests, Sherebiah, &c. and ten Levites more with them so that the number of priests and Levites were equal, and in all twenty four.
