Contextual Overview

5 So my God gave me the idea to call together all the nobles and leaders of the city, along with the ordinary citizens, for registration. I had found the genealogical record of those who had first returned to Judah. This is what was written there: 6 Here is the list of the Jewish exiles of the provinces who returned from their captivity. King Nebuchadnezzar had deported them to Babylon, but now they returned to Jerusalem and the other towns in Judah where they originally lived. 7 Their leaders were Zerubbabel, Jeshua, Nehemiah, Seraiah, Reelaiah, Nahamani, Mordecai, Bilshan, Mispar, Bigvai, Rehum, and Baanah. This is the number of the men of Israel who returned from exile: 8
The family of Parosh 2,172 9
The family of Shephatiah 372 10
The family of Arah 652 11
The family of Pahath-moab (descendants of Jeshua and Joab) 2,818 12
The family of Elam 1,254 13
The family of Zattu 845 14
The family of Zaccai 760
