Lange's Commentary on the Holy Scriptures: Critical, Doctrinal and Homiletical - 1 Chronicles 26:1-32

For the Chapter 26 passage and footnotes, see 1 Chronicles 23:1 ff.7. The Classes of Porters: 1 Chronicles 26:1-19.—To the Korhites was Meshelemiah. Comp. 1 Chronicles 26:14, where the name is Shelemiah. On the patronymic הַקֹּרָחִים, “the Korhites,” comp. 1 Chronicles 9:19, where also the names Kore and Abiasaph occurred. That “Asaph” is a slip of the pen appears from this, that, 1 Chronicles 6:24 ff., Asaph belongs to the descendants of Gershon, not, as the Korhites, to that of Kohath.1... read more

G. Campbell Morgan's Exposition on the Whole Bible - 1 Chronicles 26:1-32

In no particular did the arrangements of the king fall short. Not only Levites, priests, and singers were arranged for, but porters also, and such as had charge of all the stores set apart for the sacred work. These, moreover, were sons of the first of the nation, as well as of others less known; and the same principle of democratic selection is casting the lots-"as well the small as the great" took part. It is interesting in this section to note, moreover, how long men had looked forward to... read more

Matthew Poole's English Annotations on the Holy Bible - 1 Chronicles 26:31

In the fortieth year; which was his last year, in which he made all the orders and distributions of families and offices recorded in these chapters. Jazer of Gilead is here named, either because they were seated in or near that place, but for what cause it is now unknown; or because they were numbered there by some person sent by David to that purpose. read more

Matthew Poole's English Annotations on the Holy Bible - 1 Chronicles 26:32

Two thousand and seven hundred chief fathers; which is a very great number to be employed about two tribes and a half, when all the rest of the tribes had only one thousand and seven hundred, 1 Chronicles 26:30, besides those under Chenaniah; of whom See Poole "1 Chronicles 26:29". But the reason hereof is plain, because the tribes without Jordan being more remote from the king’s court, and from the place of public and solemn worship, needed more than ordinary help to instruct and keep them in... read more

Joseph Sutcliffe

Sutcliffe's Commentary on the Old and New Testaments - 1 Chronicles 26:1-32

1 Chronicles 26:28 . Joab had dedicated the spoils of war. Cyrus set apart the tenth of all his spoils for the gods. It was much the same among the Jews: in a line from Abraham, who gave the tenths to Melchizedek, to Samuel, Saul, Abner, David, and his captains, we find a part of their wealth dedicated to the Lord. It was also our Saxon fathers who built the churches; yet we grumble and murmur at every penny we give to God’s cause, because we do not love him, nor his ministers as we ought. read more
