al'-om (Allon): the Revised Version (British and American)ALLON(which see): One of the families of the "servants of Solomon," whose descendants returned with Zerubbabel from Babylon in the First Return, 537 BC (/APC 1Esdras 5:34). The name is not found in the parallel lists of Ezra and Nehemiah, although some have tried to identify with the last name of each list, Ami ofEzr 2:57, and Amon ofNe 7:59. This is not probable.
