Bible Person

Zaccur

Meaning: of the male kind; mindful · Male · 1 cross reference

This Zaccur entry refers to the father of one of the builders in Nehemiah 3:2, not to the Levite, the spy's father, or the Merarite namesakes elsewhere. He belongs to the family background of Jerusalem's rebuilding effort. First appears in Neh 3:2.1

AI summary: This Zaccur matters because his single cross reference survives through his son's direct work on the wall. Even a brief paternal notice helps ground the restoration narrative in remembered households and local responsibility. Taken together, the material presents this Zaccur as a familial source in the rebuilding of Jerusalem.1
