- A man living at the time of Exile and Return, only mentioned at Neh.11.5;
- only referred to as Col-hozeh כׇּל־חֹזֶה;
- a son of Hazaiah חֲזָיָה;
- father of Baruch בָּרוּךְ.
Col-hozeh is mentioned in Nehemiah 11:5 as an ancestor of Maaseiah, a descendant of Judah who settled in Jerusalem after the Babylonian exile. Maaseiah is described as the son of Baruch, the son of Col-hozeh. This Col-hozeh is likely a different individual from the father of Shallun mentioned in Nehemiah 3:15, given the different context and time period.
