Binnui, one of the descendants of Pahath-moab, divorced his foreign wife during Ezra's reforms.
Binnui was a descendant of Pahath-moab who had married a foreign woman during the exile and is listed in Ezra 10:30 among those who divorced their foreign wives under Ezra's reform. His compliance represents the painful but earnest response of ordinary Israelites to Ezra's call for communal covenant faithfulness. The name Binnui was common in the post-exilic community and appears also among Levites and family heads in Nehemiah.
