ā´ra ( ארח , 'āraḥ , "traveler"?): (1) The son of Ulla, an Asherite (1 Chronicles 7:39 ). (2) The head of a family that returned from the exile with Zerubbabel (Ezra 2:5; Nehemiah 7:10 ). He is sometimes identified with Arah of Nehemiah 6:18 whose grand-daughter became the wife of Tobiah, the Ammonite who tried to thwart Nehemiah in rebuilding Jerusalem.
