Bani

Male · 1 cross reference

This Bani entry refers to the father of Uzzi in Nehemiah 11 and belongs to the Levitical line associated with temple song and oversight in Jerusalem. He is distinct from the other genealogical and covenant-related figures of the same name. First appears in Neh 11:22.1

AI summary: This Bani matters because his single cross reference supports the lineage of a Levite connected with the supervision of worship in the restored city. The entry helps show that temple service after exile rested on remembered family continuity. Taken together, the material presents this Bani as a Levitical family source in Jerusalem's renewed worship life.1
