STEPBible TIPNR
Zichri was a leader in Jerusalem during the time of Nehemiah, as recorded in the list of residents in Nehemiah 11. He is identified as the son of Joab and is mentioned alongside Joel, the son of Zichri, who was the overseer of the Benjamites in Jerusalem. The inclusion of Zichri in this list suggests that he held a position of responsibility and leadership within the community. The context of Nehemiah 11 is the repopulation of Jerusalem after the return from Babylonian exile, and the list includes various leaders and officials who were involved in the administration and organization of the city.
