From the descendants of Pashhur
The phrase "From the descendants of Pashhur" refers to a specific lineage within the priestly families of Israel. Pashhur was a prominent priestly name, and his descendants were part of the group that had intermarried with foreign women, which was against the Mosaic Law. The Hebrew root of "Pashhur" suggests meanings related to freedom or liberation, which is ironic given the context of needing to separate from unlawful marriages to restore spiritual purity and obedience to God's commands.

Elioenai
The name "Elioenai" means "My eyes are toward God" in Hebrew. This name reflects a posture of dependence and trust in God, which is significant in the context of repentance and returning to God's ways. It serves as a reminder that even in times of correction and discipline, the focus should remain on God, seeking His guidance and mercy.

Maaseiah
"Maaseiah" means "Work of the Lord" or "The Lord's work" in Hebrew. This name underscores the importance of aligning one's actions with God's will. In the context of Ezra 10, it highlights the need for the Israelites to engage in the work of repentance and restoration, which is ultimately the work of the Lord in their lives.

Ishmael
The name "Ishmael" means "God hears" in Hebrew. This is a powerful reminder that God is attentive to the cries and prayers of His people. In the context of Ezra 10, it reassures the Israelites that God is aware of their situation and is responsive to their repentance and desire to return to His covenant.

Nethanel
"Nethanel" means "Gift of God" in Hebrew. This name reflects the grace and generosity of God, who gives good gifts to His people. In the context of Ezra 10, it serves as a reminder that the opportunity for repentance and restoration is itself a gift from God, an expression of His mercy and love.

Jozabad
The name "Jozabad" means "The Lord has given" in Hebrew. This name emphasizes God's provision and faithfulness. In the context of the Israelites' return to covenant faithfulness, it is a reminder that God provides the means and strength for His people to obey His commands and live according to His statutes.

Elasah
"Elasah" means "God has made" or "God has created" in Hebrew. This name points to God's sovereignty and creative power. In the context of Ezra 10, it underscores the belief that God is actively involved in the lives of His people, shaping and directing them according to His divine purposes.
