Phinees
Phinees
(), the Griecized form of the Heb. name PHINEHAS SEE PHINEHAS (q.v.):
a. The son of Eleazar, son of Aaron, the great hero of the Jewish priesthood (1Es 5:5; 1Es 8:2; 1Es 8:29; 2Es 1:2 b; Sir 45:23; 1Ma 2:26);
b. The son of Eli (2Es 1:2 a): but the insertion of the name in the genealogy of Ezra (in this place only) is evidently an error, since Ezra belonged to the line of Eleazar, and Eli to that of Ithamar;
c. A priest or Levite of the time of Ezra, father of Eleazar (1Es 8:63). () In 1Es 5:31 it stands for PASEAH SEE PASEAH (q.v.) of the Heb. text (Ezr 2:49).

Phinees
fine-es (, Phinees; Codex Vaticanus (Swete), , Pheinees (1 Esdras 8:2)):
(1) Phinehas, son of Eleazar, son of Aaron (1 Esdras 5:5; 8:2, 29; 2 Esdras 1:2; 1 Macc 2:26; Sirach 45:23).
(2) The father of Achias and son of Hell (Eli), a descendant of (1), and one of Ezra’s progenitors (2 Esdras 1:2); but this link is not found in Ezra’s genealogy (1 Esdras 8:1 f), nor in Ezr 7:1 ff; 1 Ch 6, and its insertion in 2 Esdras 1:2 is a mistake, since Ezra’s descent was from Eleazar, while this Phinees (Phinehas) was a descendant of Ithamar, the youngest son of Aaron.
(3) A Levite, the father of Eleazar (1 Esdras 8:63) = Phinehas of Ezr 8:33. But it is just possible that the well-known Eleazar (1) is referred to here, and so not another and different Phinees.
(4) The King James Version = the Revised Version (British and American) Phinoe (1 Esdras 5:31).
