Context of 1 Chronicles 9:4

2The first of the exiles to return to their property in their former towns were priests, Levites, Temple servants, and other Israelites. 3Some of the people from the tribes of Judah, Benjamin, Ephraim, and Manasseh came and settled in Jerusalem. One family that returned was that of Uthai son of Ammihud, son of Omri, son of Imri, son of Bani, a descendant of Perez son of Judah. 5Others returned from the Shilonite clan, including Asaiah (the oldest) and his sons. 6From the Zerahite clan, Jeuel returned with his relatives. In all, 690 families from the tribe of Judah returned.
