(hahr' sshuh) Personal name meaning, “unable to talk, silent” or “magician, sorcerer.” Clan of Temple servants who returned with Zerubbabel from Babylonian Exile about 537 B.C. (Ezra 2:52 ). Tel-Harsha (Ezra 2:59 NAS) was one of the places where Jewish exiles lived in Babylon, so that the clan could have taken its name from the Babylonian home or given its name to the Babylonian home.
