Hezir

Male · 1 cross reference

This Hezir entry refers to a covenant signatory in Nehemiah 10, not to the head of the priestly course in 1 Chronicles 24. He belongs to the restored community's public recommitment to God's law. First appears in Neh 10:20.1

AI summary: This Hezir matters because his single cross reference places him among those sealing the covenant in Jerusalem.

Taken together, the material presents this Hezir as a participant in covenant renewal.1
