'Brethren' in the Bible

And from the sons of Zerah: Jeuel and their brethren, six hundred and ninety.

and their brethren according to their generations, nine hundred and fifty-six. All these men [were] the heads of the {families} in the house of their fathers.

And the gatekeepers [were] Shallum, Akkub, Talmon, Ahiman, and their brethren (Shallum [was] the chief);

And their brethren in their villages [were] to come [every] seven days {by turn} [to be] with these.
