The name Pashhur appears in several places in the Old Testament, notably in the books of Jeremiah and Chronicles. In Jeremiah 20:1-6, Pashhur, a priest and chief officer in the house of the Lord, opposed Jeremiah, which led to his punishment and a prophecy against him. This connection suggests that the descendants of Pashhur were part of the priestly lineage, which played a significant role in the religious life of Israel. The mention of Pashhur here indicates the continuity of priestly duties and the restoration of religious practices after the Babylonian exile.
