Ezra 8:18

Servants For The Temple Are Gathered

¹⁷ I sent them to Iddo, who was the leader in the place called Casiphia. I told them what to say to Iddo and his relatives, who were the temple servants in Casiphia, so they would bring us attendants for the temple of our God. ¹⁸ Due to the fact that the good hand of our God was on us, they brought us a skilled man, from the descendants of Mahli the son of Levi son of Israel. This man was Sherebiah, who was accompanied by his sons and brothers, 18 men, ¹⁹ and Hashabiah, along with Jeshaiah from the descendants of Merari, with his brothers and their sons, 20 men,
