This site's exposition

Jeshua the son of Azaniah

on Nehemiah 10:9-13

The Levites follow the priests, headed by Jeshua the son of Azaniah, Binnui of the sons of Henadad and Kadmiel, names that reach back to the first return under Zerubbabel where Jeshua and Kadmiel already lead the Levitical courses. Their brethren follow by name through verse 13, the same office sealing the same covenant a generation after it first sang at the foundation of Ezra 3:10-11. The roll keeps the temple's two orders, priest and Levite, in their fixed order.
