Ezra

Meaning: help; court · Male · 1 cross reference

This Ezra entry refers to a Judahite family figure in 1 Chronicles 4, not to Ezra the priest and scribe. He belongs to the genealogical material preserving one branch of Judah's internal family structure. First appears in 1 Chr 4:17.1

AI summary: This Ezra matters because his single cross reference adds one more name to Judah's fine-grained family record. The entry shows that even familiar later names can appear in earlier genealogical contexts without carrying the same narrative role. Taken together, the material presents this Ezra as a Judahite family figure in the preserved genealogy.1
