• It is again beautiful to see a disproportionate response amongst the Nethinim, 220 in all, and each expressed by name (Ezra 8:20). Almost certainly of Gentile descent, perhaps even former captives, they appeared to value what had come to them at a great cost. (“Where Are the Levites? - Ezra 8:15-20” by N. Simon)
• "All of them were expressed by name." God notices their faithfulness, and caused it to be recorded. (“The Book of Ezra: Restoration From Babylon: Ezra 8” by E. Dennett)
