Parosh:
a flea; the fruit of a moth
Parosh:
pa'-rosh, par'-osh (parosh, "flea" (leap)): a family that in part returned under Zerubbabel (Ezr 2:3; Ne 7:8), and in part under Ezra (Ezr 8:3; there spelt "Pharosh," the King James Version). Some of the family had foreign wives (Ezr 10:25). One descendant, Pedaiah (see PEDAIAH, (3)), helped to rebuild the city walls (Ne 3:25), and others were among those who "sealed" the covenant of Nehemiah (Ne 10:1,14). In 1 Esdras 5:9; 8:30; 9:26, "Phoros."
Parosh:
(flea.) The descendants of Parosh, in number 2,172, returned from Babylon with Zerubbabel (Ezra 2:3; Nehemiah 7:8). Another detachment of 150 males, with Zechariah at their head, accompanied Ezra (Ezra 8:3). They assisted in the building of the well of Jerusalem (Nehemiah 3:26) and signed the covenant with Nehemiah (Nehemiah 10:14). (B.C. before 535‐445.)
