Hananiah (the governor of the fortress)
하나냐 (영문의 관원)
Named at Nehemiah 7:2 as the governor of the fortress. At 7:1–2 the speaker (“I”) says, “Now when the wall was built and I had set up the doors, and the gatekeepers and the singers and the Levites were appointed, I put my brother Hanani, and Hananiah the governor of the fortress, in charge of Jerusalem; for he was a faithful man and feared God above many.” At 7:3 the speaker says to them what is to be done with the gates of Jerusalem and the watches. Where WEB reads “for he was a faithful man”, the Korean Revised Version names Hananiah (하나냐는 위인이 충성되어).

They are carried over from the tags on the Korean Revised Version, which are matched by name inside chapters that already have collected evidence, and a verse where the English says “he” carries none. All await human review. They are a separate list from the source passages above. An empty list does not mean the entry is absent from the text.
