and with him 200 men

on Ezra 8:4-14

Eleven lay houses follow, each with its own count, beginning with Eliehoenai of Pahath-Moab and 200 men. Pahath-Moab, Adin and Elam also stand in Ezra 2 and Nehemiah 7, where the numerals differ. The difference is traced to copyists or to two stages of one register, with no verdict given.

This site's exposition

from the descendants of Bigvai

Bigvai had sent 2,056 men with the first return, by the count of Ezra 2:14. A Bigvai also stands among the leaders named with Zerubbabel at Ezra 2:2. Uthai and Zaccur now bring 70.
