Exegetical and Hermeneutical Commentary of Nehemiah 11:5
And Maaseiah the son of Baruch, the son of Col-hozeh, the son of Hazaiah, the son of Adaiah, the son of Joiarib, the son of Zechariah, the son of Shiloni.
5. Maaseiah ] In 1Ch 9:5, ‘And of the Shilonites; Asaiah the firstborn, and his sons.’
the son of Shiloni ] R.V. the son of the Shilonite. The word for ‘son of ( ben) has probably been inserted by copyists who mistook the patronymic ‘Shilonite’ for a proper name. The word ‘Shilonite’ has nothing to do with the town Shiloh; but is the patronymic form denoting a descendant of Shelah, son of Judah (Num 26:20). The Chronicles list mentions also the name of Jeuel, son of Zerah, Judah’s third son; but in this passage the Zerahites have disappeared. Their line may have become extinct, or been merged in one of the brother’s houses; or is it omitted here, because ‘the children of Zerah, the son of Judah’ are represented in Neh 11:24 by Pethahiah?
Col-hozeh ] This name has occurred in chap. Neh 3:15.

And Maaseiah,…. Who seems to be the same with Asaiah, 1Ch 9:5 and whose genealogy is carried up through Baruch, Colhozeh, Hazaiah, Adaiah, Joiarib, Zechariah, to Shiloni; perhaps the same with Shelah, another son of Judah, see 1Ch 9:5.
