Gill's Notes on the Bible

Then I separated twelve of the chief of the priests,.... That were in company with him; so that it seems there were more than the two mentioned, Ezra 8:2, very probably their families, or some of their brethren, were with them:

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.
