ba -nı̄´as (B, Βανίας , Banı́as ; A, Βανί , Banı́ ; the King James Version Banid (1 Esdras 8:36)): An ancestor of Salimoth. The descendants of Banias returned with Ezra to Jerusalem. The name is omitted ( Ezra 8:10 ), perhaps due to the oversight of a copyist or a mistaken reading of בּני , benē , "sons of," for בּני , bānı̄ ̌ .
