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 Adin
Adin had sent 454 men with the first return, by the count of Ezra 2:15. Ebed son of Jonathan now brings 50. Of the houses in this roll that came twice, only Bebai at verse 11 sends a smaller second company.
