Presbyterian
SCRIPTURE

"Only Jonathan the son of Asahel and Jahzeiah the son of Tikvah stood up against this [matter]: and Meshullam and Shabbethai the Levite helped them." — Ezra 10:15 (ASV)

Some translate it: Nevertheless, Jonathan the son of Asahel and Jahaziah the son of Tikvah opposed this. The opposition was useless (Ezra 10:16).
