1 Chronicles 24:11 -

Jeshuah . In Ezra 2:36 and Nehemiah 7:39 certain "children of Jedaiah," who returned from Babylon, are mentioned as belonging to the "house of Jeshua," and distinguished presumably thereby from children of another Jedaiah. This accords with the fact that in Nehemiah 12:6 , Nehemiah 12:7 , and again in 19, 21, two families of the name Jedaiah are given in the priest-lists. We may, therefore, conclude that families descended from the Jeshuah of our present verse were among those who returned from captivity ( Ezra 2:36 ; Nehemiah 7:39 ). Shecaniah (see Nehemiah 12:3 , where spelt Shechaniah). Of those similarly named in Ezra 8:3 , Ezra 8:5 , the former may possibly have been descendants of this Shecaniah, the latter not so.
