Ezra 2:59-63 ▼

59 Now these are those who came up from Tel-melah, Tel-harsha, Cherub, Addan, and Immer, but they were not able to declare their fathers’ households and their fathers’ seed, whether they were of Israel:

60 the sons of Delaiah, the sons of Tobiah, the sons of Nekoda, 652.

61 Of the sons of the priests: the sons of Hobaiah, the sons of Hakkoz, the sons of Barzillai, who took a wife from the daughters of Barzillai the Gileadite, and he was called by their name.

62 These searched in their genealogical records, but they could not be found; therefore they were considered unclean and excluded from the priesthood.

63 The governor said to them that they should not eat from the most holy things until a priest stood with Urim and Thummim.
