“The Nethinims: the children of Ziha, the children of Hashupha, the children of Tabbaoth,”
"The temple servants (Nethinim): the descendants of Ziha, Hasupha, Tabbaoth," beginning a long list of servants attached to the temple and presumably returned with the exiled community. The temple servants provided manual labor and support for temple operations and would have included both Israelite servants and potentially foreign captives dedicated to temple service.
