Who this is
Addon is named among a group of returning exiles who could not produce genealogical proof of their Israelite descent when the community's family records were checked after the return from Babylon (Neh. 7:61; called Addan in the parallel list at Ezra 2:59). The episode reflects how carefully priestly and tribal lineage was guarded in the postexilic community.
