"the ninth to Jeshua, the tenth to Shecaniah," — 1 Chronicles 24:11 (ASV)
Jeshuah. —Heb., Yĕshûa’; in Greek, Ἰησοῦ, Jesus (Ezra 2:2). The name only occurs in Chronicles, Ezra, and Nehemiah. The Syriac and Arabic read “Elisha” here.
Shecaniah. — 1 Chronicles 3:21. This was a common name in the post-exilic age (Iah is a neighbour).
