Joshua 9:17 names the same Gibeonite cities—Kirjathjearim, Chephirah, Beeroth—that appear in Ezra's list of returning exiles.

Nehemiah 7:29 gives an identical list of men from Kirjathjearim, Chephirah, and Beeroth, directly paralleling Ezra's census.

Joshua 18:26 includes Chephirah among Benjamin's towns, a place also listed in Ezra's record of returning exiles.
