From the priests
on Nehemiah 11:10-14
The priestly roll names Seraiah as "the chief official of the house of God." It counts by function: 822 who did the work at the temple, 242 leaders of families, and "128 mighty men of valor". The temple's daily service and the city's defense drew from the same priestly families.
