Ezra 10:6 calls the room that Ezra went into “the room of Jehohanan the son of Eliashib”. Nehemiah 12:10–11 says that Eliashib became the father of Joiada, Joiada of Jonathan, and Jonathan of Jaddua; 12:22 names the days of Eliashib, Joiada, Johanan, and Jaddua; and 12:23 names “Johanan the son of Eliashib”. Both editions write the three names differently: the Korean Revised Version reads 여호하난, 요나단 and 요하난, and WEB Jehohanan, Jonathan, and Johanan. The text does not say whether the Jehohanan of Ezra 10:6 is the Johanan of Nehemiah 12:23, whether this Johanan is the Jonathan of 12:11, whom 12:10–11 makes Eliashib’s grandson, or whether the Eliashib of Ezra 10:6 is the Eliashib of Nehemiah 12:10–23. This collection records the three apart under their own names, and decides none of this.
