Jahzerah

Jah'zerah (Heb. — Yachze'rah, יִחזֵרָה, returner; but Gesenius prefers to read יִחזיָה, i.e. Jahaziah; Sept. Ι᾿εζρίας v.r. Ε᾿ζιρά, Vulg. Jezra), son of Meshullam and father of Adiel, a priest (1Ch 9:12). B.C. long ante 536. He is probably the same with AHASAI, the father of Azareel (Ne 11:13), since the preceding and the following name are alike.
