Yēshūˊa/(Jeshua) and,Kadmiel & Hōdav\sup_yāh
Jeshua and Kadmiel are men’s names, and Hodaviah is the name of their male ancestor.
2:1-70 This chapter is the first of Ezra’s major digressions from the main story line. The returning exiles needed to keep track of who the true Jews were so that the community could maintain its identity (by knowing whom they could marry) and theological purity (by knowing who could worship at the Temple). This list is not an initial list (cp. Neh 7:6-73) of all the Jews who returned to Jerusalem but a slightly later list (after Sheshbazzar had died) of people who had settled in their towns.
