Temple servants, Nethinim, back from Babylon with Zerubbabel, and his family was one of them. The name means worker, or possibly enchanter.
Harsha, whose name means “worker” or possibly “enchanter,” headed a family of temple servants (Nethinim) who returned from Babylonian exile with Zerubbabel (Ezra 2:52; Nehemiah 7:54). The Nethinim performed menial temple duties and were likely descended from Gibeonites and war captives assigned to that service centuries earlier. Nothing more is recorded of him personally.
