Explanation preview
This verse sits inside the long roster of exiles who returned from Babylon to Jerusalem and Judah under Zerubbabel and Jeshua, probably in 538 BC. The list is organized by family and clan, and Ater is counted here as a small group of 98 men, identified through the line of Hezekiah to distinguish them from another family bearing the same name.
