From BiblePortal Wikipedia
Hastings' Dictionary of the Bible [1]
AROM ( 1Es 5:16 ). His descendants are mentioned among those who returned with Zerubbabel. The name has no parallel in the lists of Ezr. and Neh., unless it represents Hashum in Ezra 2:19 .
Cyclopedia of Biblical, Theological and Ecclesiastical Literature [2]
( Ἀρόμ , prob. interpolated), the name of a man whose descendants (or of a place whose inhabitants), to the number of thirty-two, are said to have returned from the Babylonian captivity ( 1 Esdras 5:16); but the genuine text ( Ezra 2:17-18) has no corresponding name, unless it be a mistake for Asons, and represents the HASHUM of Ezra 11:19.
International Standard Bible Encyclopedia [3]
ā´rom ( Ἀρόμ , Arō̇m ): The sons of Arom returned to Jerusalem with Zerubbabel (1 Esdras 5:16). Omitted in Ezra and Nehemiah. Hashum is found in place of Arom in Ezra 2:19 .
