Now on the fourth day was the silver and the gold and the vessels weighed in the house of our God by the hand of Meremoth the son of Uriah the priest; and with him [was] Eleazar the son of Phinehas; and with them [was] Jozabad the son of Jeshua, and Noadiah the son of Binnui, Levites;
Ezra 8:33 — KJV
Weighed. On the fourth day Ezra discharged his commission to present to the Temple treasury the various gifts from Babylonia. In doing so he appeared in person before the priests and Levites, who were in charge of the Temple, and transferred to them the entire offering of gold, silver, and vessels listed in verses 25-27.
Meremoth. He was one of the heads of the priestly order, under both Ezra and Nehemiah. He is mentioned as repairing two sections of the wall of Jerusalem when Nehemiah was governor (Neh. 3:4, 21), and as one of those who signed the covenant between God and Israel that was later concluded under the guidance of Ezra and Nehemiah, in 444 B.C. (Neh. 10:5).
Eleazar. Being, like Meremoth, a priest, Eleazar is perhaps the individual of that name mentioned as taking part in the dedication of the wall in Nehemiah’s time (Neh. 12:42).
Jozabad. Jozabad and Noadiah were chief Levites. The former name occurs again in Ezra 10:23; Neh. 8:7; 11:16.
