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 to Ezr 10:27, some of his sons had married foreign wives, and Zattu is named in Ne 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 Neh 10:14.
Zattu:
The sons of Zattu were a family of laymen of Israel who returned with Zerubbabel (Ezra 2:8; Nehemiah 7:13).
