Reference: Pahath Moab
Fausets
("governor of Moab".) Head of a chief house of Judah. Their high rank appears from their being fourth in the two lists (Ezr 2:6; Ne 7:11). Their chief signed second among the lay princes (Ne 10:14). Pahath Moab was probably a family of the Shilonites or sons of Shelah of Judah "who anciently had the dominion in Moab" (1Ch 4:22; compare 1Ch 4:14 with 1Ch 2:54, Joab). This gives some clue to Elimelech's migration to Moab (Ruth 1). Ophrah (1Ch 4:14) is related to Orpah (Ru 1:4). The most numerous family (2,818) in the lists, except the Benjamite house of Senaah (Ne 7:38). Hence they repair two portions of the wall (Ne 3:11-23). As the Benjamites and Shilonites are together in 1Ch 9:5-7; Ne 11:5-7, so Benjamin and Hashub of Pahath Moab are together in Ne 3:23.
