Zerubbabel's Persian or Babylonian name (Ezra 1:8; Ezra 1:11; Ezra 5:14; Ezra 5:16). (See ZERUBBABEL.) "Prince" (ha-nasi , the Jewish term for head of the tribe) and "governor" (pechah , the Persian Cyrus appointing him) of Judah. "Sheshbazzar laid the foundation of the house of God in Jerusalem" as Zechariah (Zechariah 4:9) foretold that Zerubbabel should do (compare Ezra 1:11 with Ezra 2:1-2).
