The historical record preserves the identities of specific leaders, continuing the detailed account with the figures of Hariph, Anathoth, and Nevai [ביאור שטיינזלץ].
The transmission of these records involves a careful balance between the written document and oral tradition. Specifically regarding the final leader, while the physical text spells his name one way, the accepted tradition passed down through the generations dictates that it is spoken aloud as Nevai [מנחת שי].
