Josiphiah
Josiphiah
(Heb. Yosiphyah’, , increased by Jehovah; Sept. ), one of the “sons” of Shelomith (as the Heb. text now stands), a chief Israelite, whose son (Ben-Josiphiah) returned with a company of 160 males under Ezra to Jerusalem (Ezr 8:10). B.C. 459. A word, however, has evidently fallen out of the Hebrew text in the beginning of the verse, and is supplied by the Sept. and the author of 1Es 8:36, as well as (less correctly) in the Syriac; namely, (), i.e. , omitted from similarity to preceding; thus making Bani (q.v.) the son of Shelomith, and the leader of the party of returned exiles.

Josiphiah
jos-i-fa (, yosiphyah, Yah adds): Found in Ezr 8:10, where Massoretic Text is and of the sons of … Shelomith the son of Josiphiah. With the help of Septuagint A and 1 Esdras 8:36, the name Bani (which is the same in the unpointed text as the sons of and was omitted through haplography) can be supplied above before Shelomith. Josiphia is thus the father of Shelomith, one of Ezra’s companions. 1 Esdras 8:36 has Josaphias.
