children. The word children, in this table, when prefixed to the name of a man, signifies the descendants of that person, as from ver. 3-21; and when prefixed to the name of a town, place, etc., it signifies the inhabitants of that place, as from ver. 21-25.

Bani. The variation of Bani, [B�n�y h1137,] and Binnui, [Binn�wy h1131,] arises from the elision of, [V�v,] {wav:} but the LXX., have here [Banoui,] as in the parallel place. 10:34; Ne 7:15;

Magbish. i.e., congregating; crystallizing. h4019. The children of Magbish are not named in our present copies of Nehemiah; but the Alexandrian MS. of the LXX. has the same reading as here. ver. 30;
Lod. 1Ch 8:12; Ne 6:2; 7:37; 11:34,35;
Hadid. or, Harid, as it is in some copies. Hadid is probably the Adida of Josephus, and the Maccabees, (1; Mac 12:38; 13:13,) a city situated on a hill in the plain country of Judah, and the Aditha of Eusebius, which he places near Diospolis, Lydda, or Lod.

Hasupha. This variation only exists in the translation, the original being written here Husupha, and in the parallel place defectively, Hasupha. Ne 7:46;
Siaha. {Sia,} [C�y� h5517,] is merely a contraction of, [C�yah� h5517,] Siaha, by the elision of, [H�,] {hay.} Ne 7:47;
Lebanah. These variations merely arise from the mutation of, [H�,] {hay,} into, ['Aleph,] according to the Chaldee dialect; the original, being respectively [Leb�n�h h3838,] Lebanah, [h3838,] and Lebana; [Chag�b� h2286,] Hagabah, and [Chag�b�h h2286,] Hagaba. Ne 7:48;
Shalmai. or, Shamlai. Shamlai, of the Kethiv, is evidently a mistake for Shalmai, as the Keri and LXX. have. ver. 47; ver. 48;

were they, as polluted, put from the priesthood. Heb. they were polluted from the priesthood. Eze 44:10-14;
Tirshatha. or, governor. The person who held this office at this time was probably Zerubbabel. The word {Tirshatha} is supposed to be Persian; and if, as Castel supposes, it signifies austerity, or that fear which is impressed by the authority of a governor, it may be derived from {tars,} "ear," or {tursh,} "acid, austere." Ne 7:65; 8:9; 10:1;

forty. Though the sum total, both here and in Nehemiah, is equal, namely, 42,360, yet the particulars reckoned up only make 29,818; in Ezra, and 31,089; in Nehemiah; and we find that Nehemiah mentions 1,765; persons who are not in Ezra, and Ezra has 494; not mentioned in Nehemiah. This last circumstance, which seems to render all hope of reconciling them impossible, Mr. Alting thinks is the very point by which they can be reconciled; for, if we add Ezra's surplus to the sum in Nehemiah, and Nehemiah's surplus to the number in Ezra, they will both amount to 31,583; which subtracted from 42,360, leaves a deficiency of 10,777, which are not named because they did not belong to the tribes of Judah and Benjamin, or to the priests, but to the other Israelitish tribes. 9:8; Ne 7:66-69; Isa 10:20-22; Jer 23:3;
