This site's exposition

Jeshua son of Azaniah

on Nehemiah 10:9-13

The Levites follow the priests, headed by "Jeshua son of Azaniah," "Binnui of the sons of Henadad" and Kadmiel. These names reach back to the first return, where Jeshua and Kadmiel already lead the Levitical courses. The roll keeps the temple's two orders, priest and Levite, in their fixed order.

This site's exposition

Zaccur, Sherebiah, Shebaniah

Sherebiah is the Levite whom Ezra calls a man of insight, brought from the sons of Mahli when Ezra found no Levites in his company. He explained the Law at 8:7 and cried out on the platform at 9:4. Shebaniah appears twice among these seals.
