Yachzerah — personal name of a priest (1 Chr 9:12)
This priestly name appears in Chronicles' roster of postexilic priests serving in Jerusalem. The parallel passage in Nehemiah 11:13 gives the name as Ahzai, suggesting either textual variation or different individuals. Such variations in priestly genealogies point to the complexity of reconstructing lineages after the disruption of exile.
Senses
1. sense 1 — A priest listed in 1 Chronicles 9:12, with the parallel Nehemiah text offering a different name. This divergence illustrates the challenges of maintaining genealogical precision through the exile. Translations universally transliterate (Spanish 'Yajzera'), treating this as a proper name whose exact relationship to similar names in parallel texts remains uncertain. 1×
