DeutschBukki
Bukki (Hebrew: בֻּקִּי Buqqī, "proved") may have been an early High Priest of Israel. Another Bukki is mentioned in Numbers as a leader in the Tribe of Dan.
Bukki is mentioned in the books 1 Chronicles (6:4) and Ezra (7:4) as the son of the High Priest Abishua, a priest fifth in descent in the line of Eleazar. In the Apocrypha (2 Esdras 1:2), his name is listed as Borith and in 1 Esdras 8:2, he is called Boccas. According to Josephus (Antiquities of the Jews 5.11.5; 8.1.3) and other extrabiblical sources,[citation needed] he succeeded his father as High Priest.
He is contemporarily identified with the Samaritan High Priest Bakhi.[1] 2nd Samaritan High Priest[2] and Sashai the 1st Samaritan High Priest was possibly his brother
