Who is this
Ater is mentioned in the lists of people who returned to Jerusalem from Babylonian captivity, as recorded in Ezra 2 and Nehemiah 7. He was the head of a family of gatekeepers, also known as doorkeepers, who were responsible for guarding the entrances to the temple and maintaining order within its precincts. The gatekeepers played a crucial role in ensuring the security and sanctity of the temple. Ater's family, along with other gatekeepers, joined the group of exiles led by Zerubbabel in their return to Jerusalem, contributing to the restoration of temple worship and service.
