Subjects in this Topic:

nab-a-rı̄´as (Ναβαρίας, Nabarı́as B, Ναβαρείας, Nabareı̄as): One of those who stood upon Ezra's left hand as he expounded the Law (1 Esd 9:44). Esdras (loc. cit.) gives only 6 names, whereas Nehemiah gives 7. It is probable that the last (Meshullam) of Nehemiah's list is simply dropped and that Nabarias = Hashbaddanah; or it may possibly be a corruption of Zechariah in Nehemiah's list.
