Who this is

Reeliah is listed among the leaders of the Jewish exiles who returned to Judah from Babylon under Zerubbabel and Jeshua (Ezra 2:2). The parallel roster of leaders in Nehemiah 7:7 gives a slightly different set of names, a minor variation common between the two overlapping return lists.
