san´a - sib (Fritzsche, Σανασίβ , Sanası́b , but Codex Vaticanus and Swete, Σαναβείς , Sanabeı́s  ; Codex Alexandrinus Ἀνασείβ , Anaseı́b ): Found only in 1 Esdras 5:24, where the sons of Jeddu, the son of Jesus, are a priestly family returning "among the sons of Sanasib." The name is not found in the parallel   Ezra 2:36;  Nehemiah 7:39 , and is perhaps preserved in the Vulgate (Jerome's Latin Bible, 390-405 A.D.) "Eliasib."

( Σανασίβ , v.r. Σαναβίς , Ἀνασείβ ) , A head of the priests, "the sons of Jeddu, the son of Jesus," who are said to have returned, to the number of 972, with Zerubbabel from the captivity ( 1 Esdras 5:24); evidently the 973 "children of Jedaiah, of the house of Jeshua," in the Heb. texts ( Ezra 2:36;  Nehemiah 7:39), the name Sanasib having been repeated for the "Senaah" (Esdras, "Annaas") of the preceding verse.
