Commentary
3 notes on this verseAnd Adaiah the son of Jeroham, the son of Pashur,.... In this genealogy, between Jeroham and Pashur, were three more here omitted, Pelaliah, Amzi, Zechariah, Neh 11:12, and then Pashur the son of Malchijah, as here: and Maasiai the son of Adiel; whose pedigree is traced up from hence, through Jahzerah, Meshullam, Meshillemith, to Immer; one of the five heads of the courses settled by David, 1Ch 24:14. The names of this man, and of his ancestors, are given, with some variation, in Neh 11:13.

From the priests
on 1 Chronicles 9:10-16
Jedaiah, Jehoiarib, and Jachin are three of the twenty-four priestly courses set out in 1 Chronicles 24: Jehoiarib first, Jedaiah second, Jachin twenty-first. The returned priesthood thus takes up an order older than the exile. The Levites named through verse 16 trace back to Merari and to Asaph.
This site's exposition
Adaiah son of Jeroham
Gill notes that Nehemiah 11:12 names three more generations between Jeroham and Pashhur. Maasai's line runs back to Immer, head of the sixteenth priestly course in 1 Chronicles 24:14. Both names recur among the returned priests (Ezra 2:37 to 38).
