Contextual Overview

15However, Jonathan the son of Asahel and Jahzeiah the son of Tikvah stood against this, with Meshullam and Shabbethai the Levite helping them. 16But the exiles did so. And Ezra the priest separated out men who were heads of fathers' households for each of their father's households, all of them by name. So they convened on the first day of the tenth month to investigate the matter. 17And they completed investigating all the men who had married foreign wives by the first day of the first month. 18Among the sons of the priests who had married foreign wives were found of the sons of Jeshua the son of Jozadak, and his brothers: Maaseiah, Eliezer, Jarib and Gedaliah. 19They gave their hand in pledge to put away their wives, and being guilty, they offered a ram of the flock for their guilt. 20Of the sons of Immer there were Hanani and Zebadiah; 21and of the sons of Harim: Maaseiah, Elijah, Shemaiah, Jehiel and Uzziah; 22and of the sons of Pashhur: Elioenai, Maaseiah, Ishmael, Nethanel, Jozabad and Elasah. 23Of Levites there were Jozabad, Shimei, Kelaiah (that is, Kelita), Pethahiah, Judah and Eliezer. 24Of the singers there was Eliashib; and of the gatekeepers: Shallum, Telem and Uri.

Bible Verse Review

Harim: Ezra 2:32, Nehemiah 7:35

Malchiah: This variation only exists in the translation, the original being uniformly Malchijah, or rather, Malkeeyah. Nehemiah 3:11, Malchijah

Reciprocal: Nehemiah 6:10 - Shemaiah Nehemiah 7:42 - Harim

Gill's Notes on the Bible

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.
