யோவேல் (Neh 11:9)

பற்றி · About

Joel, the son of Zichri, is mentioned in Neh.11.9 as a leader of the Benjaminites who settled in Jerusalem after the Babylonian exile. Following the return of the exiles and the rebuilding of the city walls, Nehemiah organized the repopulation of Jerusalem. He appointed leaders from various tribes to reside in the holy city and help maintain its security and prosperity. Joel is identified as the second-in-command to Judah, the son of Hassenuah, who was the chief of the Benjaminites in Jerusalem. This leadership role indicates Joel's importance and responsibility within the Benjaminite community during the post-exilic period.
