Pashur This name does not occur among the 24 priestly houses. But a Pashur is mentioned 1 Chronicles 9:12; Nehemiah 11:12 as the son of Malchiah, and the name of -Malchiah" is given to the fifth priestly house (1 Chronicles 24:9). Either Pashur the son of Malchiah, a prominent man in the court of king Zedekiah (Jeremiah 21:1; Jeremiah 38:1), gave his name to the branchof the house of Malchiah which returned with Zerubbabel: or the whole priestly house of Malchiah became known by the name of its distinguished member, Pashur.
