Hastings' Dictionary of the Bible [1]
NEHEMIAS. 1 . Esther 5:8 Esther 5:8 = Nehemiah , Ezra 2:2 , Nehemiah 7:7 . Nehemiah 7:2 . 1Es 5:40 , Nehemiah the contemporary of Ezra.
International Standard Bible Encyclopedia [2]
nē - hḗ - mı̄´as : Greek form of the Hebrew Nehemiah .
(1) Νεεμίας , Neemı́as , one of the leaders of the return under Zerubbabel (1 Esdras 5:8) = "Nehemiah" of Ezra 2:2; Nehemiah 7:7 .
(2) Νεεμίας , Neemı́as , Codex Vaticanus Ναιμίας , Naimı́as , the prophet Nehemiah (1 Esdras 5:40 where the King James Version margin reads "Nehemias who also is Atharias"). Neither Nehemias nor Attharias is found in the parallel Ezra 2:63; Nehemiah 7:65 , but התּרשׁתא , ha - tirshāthā' = Tirshatha , "the governor," by whom Zerubbabel must be intended. Thus, the Hebrew word for "governor" has been converted into a proper name and by some blunder the name Nehemiah inserted, perhaps because he also was known by the title of "governor."
