Nehemiah 7:62 In-Context

60 All of the temple servants and the descendants of Solomon's servants totaled 392.
61 The following came up from Tel-Melah, Tel-harsha, Cherub, Addon, and Immer, but were unable to prove that their family or their descent was from Israel:
62 the descendants of Delaiah, Tobiah, and Nekoda, 642.
63 And of the priests: the descendants of Hobaiah, Hakkoz, and Barzillai (who had married one of the daughters of Barzillai the Gileadite and was called by his name)
64 looked for their entries in the genealogical records, but they weren't found there, so they were excluded from the priesthood as unclean.
