SEV Biblia, Chapter 12:1
¶ Y éstos son los sacerdotes y levitas que subieron con Zorobabel hijo de Salatiel, y con Jesúa: Seraías, Jeremías, Esdras,
Clarke's Bible Commentary - Nehemiah 12:1
Verse 1. Now these are the priests] Not the whole, but the chief of them, as we are informed, ver. 7, 22, 23, and 24. The Septuagint omit ver. 3, except the word Shechaniah; as also verses 4, 5,6, 9,37, 38, 39, 40, and 41. The Arabic omits the first twenty-six verses, and ver. 29. Mention is made of Ezra in this verse; and he is generally allowed to be that Ezra whose book the reader has already passed over, and who came to Jerusalem in the time of Cyrus, with ZerubbHebel. If this were the same, he must have been at this time upward of a hundred years of age: and this case is not improbable, as an especial providence might preserve such a very useful man beyond the ordinary age of men. See what has been said on the case of Nehemiah, See "chap. i. 1".
John Gill's Bible Commentary
Ver. 1. Now these are the priests and the Levites that went up with Zerubbabel the son of Shealtiel, and Jeshua , etc.] Who went up from the captivity in Babylon to Jerusalem with them; the one was the prince, the other the high priest, the same with Joshua the high priest, ( Zechariah 3:1), the names of the priests are given in this and the six following verses: Seraiah, Jeremiah, Ezra ; not Jeremiah the prophet, who cannot be thought to live so long as through the captivity; but Ezra may be Ezra the priest and scribe, who might come up with Zerubbabel to Jerusalem, and return to Babylon again, and from thence come again as he did, in the seventh year of Artaxerxes, ( Ezra 7:1,6,7), though this by some is not thought very probable.
Matthew Henry Commentary
Verses 1-26 - It is a debt we owe to faithful ministers, to remember our guides, wh have spoken to us the word of God. It is good to know what our godl predecessors were, that we may learn what we should be.
