Ezra 8:10

Eleven houses follow, each with its own count, from two hundred males under Elihoenai to fifty under Ebed, laymen numbered the way a company is mustered before it moves. The same family names, Pahathmoab, Shechaniah, Adin, Elam, appear in the earlier list of Ezra 2 and again in Nehemiah 7, and the readings on why the two censuses differ in their numerals are named without a verdict, either copyist transmission of numerals or two separate stages of one register. Shechaniah's name covers two different houses in this one chapter, a reminder that a family name in this era marks a clan rather than a single father. Set beside the priests and the house of David already named, the laymen counted here total near fifteen hundred, a company large enough to need its own muster before it can move.
