1 Chronicles 26:4-5 - The Pulpit Commentary

1 Chronicles 26:4-5 -

Here we have the enumeration of eight sons of Obed-edom ( 1 Chronicles 15:21 , 1 Chronicles 15:24 ; 1 Chronicles 16:38 ). That in this last reference Obed-edom seems to be called "son of Jeduthun" is owing probably to the omission of a name. For former occurrences of the sentence, God blessed him , with its present evident allusion, see 1 Chronicles 13:14 ; 2 Samuel 6:11 . To this passage, the expression of 1 Chronicles 25:5 , "to lift up the horn," is probably analogous, where see comment.
