נחמיה, פרק י״ב, פסוק ל״ב

During the procession, the participants were organized with careful attention to their placement in the line. Hoshaiah and half of the leaders of Judah took part in this march, occupying a clearly defined position. They were instructed to march directly behind the individuals who were tasked with carrying the loaves of thanksgiving [מצודת דוד].
