Zattu

zat'-u (zattu', meaning unknown): Head of a large family that returned with Zerubbabel to Jerusalem from Babylon (Ezr 2:8;10:27;Ne 7:13;10:14(15)). According toEzr 10:27, some of his sons had married foreign wives, and Zattu is named inNe 10:14as one of the chiefs who signed Nehemiah's covenant. Septuagint A also adds the name before that of Shecaniah inEzr 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.
