A'din. (dainty, delicate). Ancestor of a family who returned from Babylon with Zerubbabel, to the number of 454, Ezr_2:15, or 655 according to the parallel list in Neh_7:20. (B.C. 536). They joined with Nehemiah in a covenant to separate themselves from the heathen. Neh_10:16. (B.C. 410).

ā?din (עדין, ‛ādhı̄n, ?adorned?): The name of a family, ?the sons of Adin? (Ezr_2:15; Ezr_8:6; Neh_7:20; Neh_10:16; 1 Esdras 5:14; 8:32), mentioned among the returning exiles. The list in Ezr 2 is placed in the midst of the narrative concerning Zerubbabel, but its title and Its contents show that it also includes the later Jewish immigrants into Palestine. The list in Neh 7 is a duplicate of that in Ezr, but with variations; most of the variations are naturally accounted for by supposing that one copy was made later than the other and was brought up to date. In Ezr and 1 Esdras the number of the sons of Adin is said to be 454; in Neh it is 655. The 50 males, led by Ebed the son of Jonathan, who came with Ezr, may or may not have been included in the numbers just mentioned. Among the names of those who sealed the covenant along with Neh are 44 that are placed under the caption ?the chiefs of the people? (Neh_10:14-26), and nearly half of these are the family names of the list in Ezr 2 and Neh 7. It is natural to infer that in these cases a family sealed the covenant collectively through some representative. In that case the Adin here mentioned is the same that is mentioned in the other places. See also ADINU.

Adin
(Heb. Adin’, עָדַין, effeminate, as in Isa_47:8; Sept. Α᾿δίν, Α᾿δδίν, ᾿Ηδίν, ᾿Ηδείν), the head of one of the Israelitish families, of which a large number (454, according to Ezr_2:15, but 655, according to Neh_7:20 — the discrepancy being occasioned by an error in the hundreds, and the including or excluding of himself) returned from Babylon with Zerubbabel (B.C. 536) and fifty more (with Ebed the son of Jonathan) under Ezra (B.C. 459, Ezr_8:6). He appears to have been the same with one of those who subscribed the religious covenant with Nehemiah (Neh_10:16, B.C. cir. 410). His name occurs in the parallel passages of the Apocrypha (Α᾿δινού, 1Es_5:14; Α᾿δίν, 1Es_8:32).
