the descendants of
This phrase indicates a genealogical record, which is a common feature in the Old Testament. The Hebrew word for "descendants" is "בְּנֵי" (benei), meaning "sons of" or "children of." This highlights the importance of lineage and heritage in Jewish culture, emphasizing the continuity of God's covenant with His people. The genealogies serve as a testament to God's faithfulness in preserving His chosen people through generations.

Immer
Immer is one of the priestly families that returned from the Babylonian exile. The name "Immer" is derived from the Hebrew root "אָמַר" (amar), meaning "to speak" or "to say." This could symbolize the role of the priests as those who speak on behalf of God, conveying His laws and decrees to the people. Historically, the family of Immer is mentioned in other parts of the Bible, such as in 1 Chronicles 24:14, where they are listed among the divisions of the priests. This highlights the continuity and restoration of the priestly service in the post-exilic community.

1,052
The specific number of 1,052 descendants of Immer who returned is significant. Numbers in the Bible often carry symbolic meaning, and while this number may not have a specific symbolic interpretation, it underscores the precision and care with which the records were kept. It reflects the organized and deliberate effort to restore the community and the temple service in Jerusalem. The detailed record-keeping also serves as a reminder of God's providence and the fulfillment of His promises to bring His people back to their land. This meticulous documentation is a testament to the faithfulness of the returning exiles in re-establishing their identity and religious practices according to God's commandments.
