Chosamaeus
CHOSAMUS (1Es 9:32).It is not improbable that the Gr. reading is due to a copyists error, especially seeing that the three proper names that follow Simeon in the text of Ezr 10:31 are omitted in 1 Esdras.

Chosamaeus
kos-a-meus (A, , Simon Chosamaos; B, , Chosamaos): Occurs in 1 Esdras 9:32 as the name of one of the sons of Annas. But in the parallel passage (Ezr 10:31) the name is simply Shimeon followed by Benjamin, Malluch, Shemariah, which are omitted in 1 Esdras. The Septuagint of Ezr 10:31 has , Semeon, followed by the three omitted names. The difference may have arisen from a mistake of a copyist, or from the use of an imperfect MS.
