Ezra 2:62-67

Good News Translation

^61-62 The following priestly clans could find no record to prove their ancestry: Habaiah, Hakkoz, and Barzillai. (The ancestor of the priestly clan of Barzillai had married a woman from the clan of Barzillai of Gilead and had taken the name of his father-in-law's clan.) Since they were unable to prove who their ancestors were, they were not accepted as priests. ^63 (A)The Jewish governor told them that they could not eat the food offered to God until there was a priest who could use the Urim and Thummim.^[a]
