Hashum is listed among the families in the genealogical records of those who returned with Zerubbabel. This highlights the importance of family lineage and tribal identity in post-exilic Israel, as maintaining a connection to one's ancestral heritage was crucial for re-establishing the community and religious practices. The name Hashum appears in other parts of the Bible, such as <a href="/nehemiah/7-22.htm">Nehemiah 7:22</a>, which parallels this list, and <a href="/nehemiah/10-18.htm">Nehemiah 10:18</a>, where a descendant of Hashum is noted as one of the signatories of the covenant to follow God's law. This indicates the family's continued involvement in the religious and communal life of Israel.<p><b>223;</b><br>The number "223" signifies the specific count of individuals from the family of Hashum who returned to Jerusalem. This precise enumeration underscores the meticulous record-keeping of the returning exiles, reflecting the importance of each family in the restoration of the nation. The detailed census also serves to verify the fulfillment of God's promise to bring His people back to their land, as prophesied in <a href="/jeremiah/29-10.htm">Jeremiah 29:10-14</a>. The return of these families, including the descendants of Hashum, is a testament to God's faithfulness and the re-establishment of Israel's identity and religious practices. The careful documentation of numbers also highlights the organizational efforts required to rebuild the community and the temple, ensuring that each family had a role in the restoration process.<div class="vheading2">Persons / Places / Events</div>1. <b><a href="/topical/h/hashum.htm">Hashum</a></b><br>A family head whose descendants returned from the Babylonian exile.
