Nehemja 7,61

59 etterkommerne av Sjefatja, Hattil, Pokeret-Hassebaim og tempeltjeneren Amon.

60 Tempeltjenerne og etterkommerne av Salomos tjenere utgjorde 392.

Dette var de som kom opp fra Tel-Melah, Tel-Harsa, Kerub, Addon og Immer, men de kunne ikke bevise sine familier eller sin avstamning, om de var av Israel:

62 familiene av Delaja, Tobia og Nekoda, 642.

63 Og blant prestene: etterkommerne av Hobaia, Hakkos og Barsillai, som hadde giftet seg med en datter av Barsillai fra Gilead og tok det navnet.

Here the Bible tells a story about someone else. Ask yourself what it can say to us today. Do read the surrounding verses too, because the context often says more than a single verse.
