Who this is
The ancestor of a family of temple servants, or Nethinim, who returned from Babylonian exile to Jerusalem with Zerubbabel (Ezra 2:43-50). The Nethinim were likely descended from war captives assigned to menial sanctuary duties, and their careful listing alongside priests and Levites shows how closely the returning community tracked lineage.
