A Benjaminite who resettled in Jerusalem
Biography
Joed is mentioned in Neh.11.7 as one of the Benjaminites who resettled in Jerusalem after the Babylonian exile.

He gathered the leaders, nobles, and people to be registered by genealogy, and Joed is listed among the descendants of Benjamin who chose to reside in the holy city.
