Zattu

(Heb. Zattu’, , pleasant; Sept. v.r. , , etc.; Vulg. Zethua, Zethu), an Israelite whose sons to the number of 945 (or 845) returned from Babylon with Zerubbabel (Ezra 2, 8; Neh 7:13); and another company of them returned with Ezra, although his name has accidentally dropped out of the text in Ezr 8:5, as we learn from the Sept and the Apocryphal parallel (1Es 8:32), which both read of the sons of Zathoe, Zechenias son of Aziel [orJezelus] (Keil, Comment. ad loc.). B.C. ante 536. Several of these descendants renounced their Gentile wives (Ezr 10:27).

Zattu

zatu (, zattu’, meaning unknown): Head of a large family that returned with Zerubbabel to Jerusalem from Babylon (Ezr 2:8; Ezr 10:27; Neh 7:13; Neh 10:14 (15)). According to Ezr 10:27, some of his sons had married foreign wives, and Zattu is named in Neh 10:14 as one of the chiefs who signed Nehemiah’s covenant. Septuagint A also adds the name before that of Shecaniah in Ezr 8:5, and so we should read, And of the sons of Zattu, Shecaniah …; so 1 Esdras 8:32 has , Zathoes. the King James Version has Zatthu in Neb 10:14.
