nab - a - rı̄´as ( Ναβαρίας , Nabarı́as B, Ναβαρείας , Nabareı̄as ): One of those who stood upon Ezra's left hand as he expounded the Law (1 Esd 9:44). Esdras (loc. cit.) gives only 6 names, whereas Nehemiah Nehemiah 8:4 gives 7. It is probable that the last (Meshullam) of Nehemiah's list is simply dropped and that Nabarias = Hashbaddanah; or it may possibly be a corruption of Zechariah in Nehemiah's list.
