Sallu—a priest in the time of Zerubbabel
Sallu appears as a priestly name during the post-exilic period when Zerubbabel led the rebuilding efforts in Jerusalem. The name occurs in Nehemiah's list of priests who returned from Babylon. The textual tradition shows some variation, with verse 20 giving an alternate form Sallai, and the Septuagint reflecting slight differences in transliteration.
