Ezra 2:61-63
New International Reader's Version
61 Here is a list of the members of the family lines of the priests.
They were Hobaiah, Hakkoz and Barzillai. Barzillai had married a daughter of Barzillai from Gilead. So he was also called Barzillai.
62 The priests looked for their family records. But they couldn’t find them. So they weren’t able to serve as priests. They were “unclean.” 63 The governor gave them an order. He told them not to eat any of the most sacred food. They had to wait until there was a priest who could use the Urim and Thummim. The priest would use them to find out what the Lord wanted the people to do.
