the descendants of Hariph
The phrase "the descendants of Hariph" refers to a specific family lineage within the broader context of the Jewish community returning from Babylonian exile. The name "Hariph" is of Hebrew origin, and while not much is known about this particular family, their inclusion in the genealogical record underscores the importance of each family in the restoration of Jerusalem. In Hebrew, "Hariph" could be related to the word "harif," meaning "autumn" or "harvest," suggesting a possible connection to agricultural activities or a symbolic representation of a time of gathering and restoration. This highlights the theme of renewal and the gathering of God's people back to their homeland, emphasizing the fulfillment of God's promises and the importance of each family in the divine plan.

112
The number "112" signifies the specific count of individuals from the family of Hariph who returned to Jerusalem. Numbers in biblical texts often carry symbolic weight, and while 112 does not have a widely recognized symbolic meaning, its specificity underscores the meticulous nature of the record-keeping during this period. This attention to detail reflects the importance of each individual in the community and the collective effort required to rebuild the city and its spiritual life. Historically, the precise recording of numbers in genealogies served to validate claims of heritage and land rights, which were crucial for the re-establishment of societal order and religious practices in post-exilic Jerusalem. This meticulous documentation also serves as a reminder of God's faithfulness in preserving His people and fulfilling His covenant promises, encouraging believers to trust in God's providential care and involvement in the details of their lives.

Verse 24. - The children of Hariph. Ezra has "Jorah" instead of Hariph (Ezra 2:18); but "Hariph" is confirmed by Nehemiah 10:19.
