Explanation preview
This verse belongs to the roll of exiles who returned from Babylon to Jerusalem and Judah under Zerubbabel, as the Persian empire allowed the Jews to go home and rebuild the temple. The list counts men by family and by ancestral town, and here three towns are grouped together: Kiriath-jearim, Chephirah and Beeroth, all towns of the Gibeonite league in the hill country north of Jerusalem.
