HARIM

1. Priest whom King David appointed to official duties in the temple (1 Chr 24:8).

2. Ancestor of a Jewish family who returned from the Babylonian exile with Zerubbabel (Ezr 2:32; Neh 10:5). Members of this family were guilty of marrying foreign women (Ezr 10:31), but they divorced their wives and a representative of the clan signed Ezra’s covenant (Neh 10:27).

3. Ancestor of a family of priests who returned from the exile with Zerubbabel (Ezr 2:39; Neh 7:42). Some identify him with #1 above. Members of this family were guilty of marrying foreign women.

4. Ancestor of Malkijah. Malkijah repaired a section of the Jerusalem wall during Nehemiah’s time (Neh 3:11). This Harim could be the same as #2 above.

5. Priest who returned from the exile with Zerubbabel (Neh 12:3; Hebrew “Rehum,” see NLT mg). His son (or grandson) Adna is listed as a leading priest during the high priesthood of Joiakim (12:15). Later, under Ezra, a representative of the family (probably related to #3 above) signed the covenant of faithfulness to God (10:5).
