Nehemiah 12:5 is a list of names recording Miamin, Maadiah, and Bilgah among the leading ones associated with the return from captivity. They were priests connected with the dedication of Jerusalem's restored walls after the return from Babylonian captivity. That dedication was celebrated with purification of the priests, Levites, and people, with thanksgiving and singing accompanied by musical instruments, with sacrifices, and with rejoicing shared by women and children.
