the leaders of the people
on Nehemiah 10:14-27
The lay heads of families close the roll, the family names that head the register of the first return in Ezra 2 and Nehemiah 7. The generation that came up under Zerubbabel and the generation that seals the covenant under Nehemiah are the same houses, the old remnant still standing.
This site's exposition
Ahijah, Hanan, Anan
Hanan signs for the third time in this roll, at verses 10, 22 and 26, once as a Levite and twice among the lay leaders. Common names in the list belong to different men. Each is known by his place in the order.
