Azariah
“he that hears the Lord” Hitchcock's 18691 mention, all in Nehemiah
Who he was
Azariah is one of the leaders of the first return from exile, in the list of those “who came with Zerubbabel, Jeshua, Nehemiah, Azariah, Raamiah, Nahamani, Mordecai, Bilshan, Mispereth, Bigvai, Nehum, and Baanah” (Nehemiah 7:7). The same list in Ezra has Seraiah in his place (Ezra 2:2). Nothing more is told of him. He is not the priest Azariah who sealed the covenant in Nehemiah’s day, some ninety years later (Nehemiah 10:2).
