Ezra 8:17-20

17And I sent them to Iddo the 1leading man at the place called Casiphia; and I 2told them what to say to 3Iddo and his brothers, 4the temple servants at the place Casiphia, that is, to bring ministers to us for the house of our God. 185And as the good hand of our God was upon us, they brought us a 6man of insight from the sons of Mahli, the son of Levi, the son of Israel, namely Sherebiah, and his sons and brothers, eighteen men; 19and Hashabiah and 7Jeshaiah of the sons of Merari, with his brothers and their sons, twenty men; 20and 220 of 8the temple servants, whom David and the officials had provided for the service of the Levites, all of them designated by name.
