And of the children of the priests: the children of Habaiah, the children of Koz, the children of Barzillai; which took a wife of the daughters of Barzillai the Gileadite, and was called after their name:
Entre los descendientes de los sacerdotes estaban las familias de Habaía, Cos y Barzilai. La familia de Barzilai recibió su nombre porque su antepasado se casó con una mujer de las hijas de Barzilai el galaadita y tomó ese nombre de familia.
Algunas familias sacerdotales recibieron sus nombres por matrimonio con otras familias prominentes.
📚 Contexto Histórico
In the book of Ezra, which recounts the return of the Jewish exiles from Babylon to Jerusalem after their captivity, this verse is part of a genealogical list documenting the families and priests who resettled. It specifically mentions priests whose lineage was questioned because they had married into another family and adopted that name, potentially disqualifying them from temple service under Jewish law. This reflects the strict emphasis on genealogical purity in ancient Israelite society to maintain the integrity of religious roles.
