This verse falls within a roster of priestly family heads recorded in the days of Joiakim, who served as high priest after the return from exile in Babylon. The list matches each ancestral house with the man who led it at that time, so Mattenai headed the family of Joiarib and Uzzi headed the family of Jedaiah.
