Neziah is not a prominent figure elsewhere in the Bible, and his descendants are likely a smaller family or clan within the larger community of Israel. This reflects the inclusivity of the return, where even lesser-known families were recorded, emphasizing the restoration of the entire community. The listing of names underscores the importance of identity and heritage in post-exilic Israel, as the people sought to reestablish their connection to the land and their ancestral promises. This return fulfills prophecies such as those in <a href="/jeremiah/29-10.htm">Jeremiah 29:10</a>, where God promises to bring His people back after seventy years of exile.<p><b>and the descendants of Hatipha</b><br>Similarly, "the descendants of Hatipha" are included in this genealogical record. Like Neziah, Hatipha is not a widely recognized name in the biblical narrative, suggesting that these were smaller or less prominent families. The inclusion of such names highlights the comprehensive nature of the return from exile, where every family, regardless of size or status, was significant in the reconstitution of the nation. This reflects the biblical theme of God's concern for all His people, not just the prominent or powerful. The return from exile is a type of the ultimate restoration and redemption found in Jesus Christ, who gathers all believers, regardless of their background, into the family of God, as seen in passages like <a href="/galatians/3-28.htm">Galatians 3:28</a>.<div class="vheading2">Persons / Places / Events</div>1. <b><a href="/topical/n/neziah.htm">Neziah</a></b><br>A family or clan mentioned among the exiles returning to Jerusalem.
