sam´a - tus ( Σάματος , Sámatos ): One of the sons of Ezora who put away their "strange wives" (1 Esdras 9:34). It is difficult to say which, if any, name it represents in parallel Ezra 10:34 ff, where no "sons of Ezora" are inserted between "sons of Bani" and "sons of Nebo": probably Shallurn ( Ezra 10:42 ), but possibly Shemariah (Ezra 10:41 ).
