Explanation preview
This verse falls within the list of the descendants of Solomon's servants, a group of temple workers returning from Babylonian exile with Zerubbabel around 538 BC. The chapter records the register of those resettling Jerusalem and Judah, and these four family names belong to a class of hereditary servants attached to the sanctuary, distinct from priests and Levites.
