Verses 43-54

The temple servants 2:43-54

The "temple servants" were an order of Israelites that David had established to assist the Levites (Ezra 8:20). The biblical writers sometimes called them the Nethinim (lit. those given, i.e., dedicated, to God). They may have been the descendants of the Gibeonites whom Joshua had subjugated (Joshua 9:27), and or the descendants of other war captives. [Note: Myers, p. 19.]
