Bible Person

Binnui

Meaning: building · Male · 1 cross reference

This Binnui entry refers to another man named in Ezra 10, distinct from the other Binnuis in the same general post-exilic setting. He belongs to the community's painful process of repentance and correction. First appears in Ezra 10:30.1

AI summary: This Binnui matters because his single cross reference again shows how Ezra's reform named individuals rather than addressing sin only in the abstract. The repetition of the name across the lists reflects the ordinary human breadth of the issue. Taken together, the material presents this Binnui as one of the people included in post-exilic reform.1
