Ezra 8:7

8:7 from the descendants of Elam, Jeshaiah son of Athaliah, and with him 70 men;

Ezra 8:14

8:14 from the descendants of Bigvai, Uthai, and Zaccur, and with them 70 men.


tc The translation reads with the Qere, the Lucianic Greek recension, the Syriac Peshitta, and the Vulgate וְזַּכּוּר (vÿzakkur, “and Zaccur”) rather than the Kethib of the MT, וְזַבוּד (vÿzavud, “and Zabbud”).

tn The MT has “with him” (so NAB). The present translation (“with them”) is based on the reading of many medieval Hebrew MSS, the Lucianic Greek recension, the Syriac Peshitta, and the Vulgate (so also KJV, NASB, NIV, NRSV).
