1 Esdras 5:54-56

Common English Bible

⁵⁴ In the second month of the second year,^[a] after they came to God’s temple in Jerusalem, Zerubbabel, Shealtiel’s son, and Jeshua, Jozadak’s son, made a new start, together with their associates and the levitical priests and all who had returned to Jerusalem from captivity. ⁵⁵ They then laid the foundation of God’s temple on the new moon of the second month in the second year of their arrival in Judea and Jerusalem. ⁵⁶ They appointed the Levites who were 20 years old or more in charge of the Lord’s work.

Rising up were Jeshua, his sons and associates; his brother Kadmiel and Jeshua’s sons; Emadabun and Joda’s sons; and Iliadun’s son with their sons and brothers. With them, all the Levites worked with a common purpose doing the work in God’s house.
