Nehemiah 7
7
1Now when the wall had been built #[ch. 6:1]and I had set up the doors, and the gatekeepers, the singers, and the Levites had been appointed, 2I gave #ch. 1:2 my brother Hanani and Hananiah the governor of #ch. 2:8 the castle charge over Jerusalem, for he was #[ch. 13:13]a more faithful and God-fearing man than many. 3And I said to them, “Let not the gates of Jerusalem be opened until the sun is hot. And while they are still standing guard, let them shut and bar the doors. Appoint guards from among the inhabitants of Jerusalem, some at their guard posts and some in front of their own homes.” 4The city was wide and large, but the people within it were few, and no houses had been rebuilt.
Lists of Returned Exiles
5Then my God put it into my heart to assemble the nobles and the officials and the people to be enrolled by genealogy. And I found the book of the genealogy of #Ezra 1:11those who came up at the first, and I found written in it:

66The whole assembly together was 42,360, 67besides their male and female servants, of whom there were 7,337.
