Reference: Jedaiah (1)

Fausets

Head of the second course of priests, under David (1Ch 24:7). Some "children of Jedaiah of the house of Jeshua, 973," returned from Babylon (Ezr 2:36; Ne 7:39). These are thus distinguished from a second priestly "house" named "Jedaiah" (Ne 12:6-7,19,21). Jehoiarib and Jedaiah represent two classes of the priesthood (1Ch 9:10). It is a corrupt reading in Ne 11:10 which makes Jedaiah son of Joiarib. Though Joiarib's was the first course, Jedaiah's, as having for their head Jeshua (he being high-priest under Zerubbabel), is named first.
