Usage: The name Chasupha appears in the context of the return of the exiles to Jerusalem and Judah. It is specifically mentioned in the genealogical records of those who returned from Babylonian captivity.

Context: Chasupha is listed among the Nethinim, a group of temple servants who returned to Jerusalem with Zerubbabel after the Babylonian exile. The Nethinim were assigned to assist the Levites in the service of the temple. The mention of Chasupha is found in the book of Ezra, where it is recorded as part of the genealogical list of those who came back to help restore the temple and its services. The name appears in Ezra 2:43: "The temple servants: the descendants of Ziha, Hasupha, Tabbaoth," (BSB). This listing underscores the importance of the Nethinim in the reestablishment of worship practices in Jerusalem. The role of the Nethinim, including the family of Chasupha, was crucial in supporting the Levites and ensuring the smooth operation of temple activities.
