The attested form functions as a proper name in two parallel list clauses, where each group is identified as “the sons of Neziah.”

Senses in use

  1. Proper name identifying a listed group · dominant

    In Ezra 2:54, the form is tagged Noun · Proper in the clause naming “the sons of Neziah” alongside “the sons of Hatipha.” Nehemiah 7:56 presents the same proper-name use; the APB renders the clause “The sons of Neziah and the sons of Hatipha.”

In the Anselm Project Bible: Across Ezra 2:54 and Nehemiah 7:56, the APB presents the name in the phrase “the sons of Neziah.” The verse is read as a whole, but both clauses place it in the same list context.
