 Good morning and a merry Christmas eve eve to you all. God is good all the time, all the time, God is good.

The following exiles were from the tribes of Judah and Benjamin and is made up of men who were leaders.  This same list is in Nehemiah 7:7.  These are the families and citizens of cities.  Verse 36 begins listing priest, Levites, and other Temple servants.  To save time and space I'll let you view these on your own with no other commentary.
