1 Chronicles 25:5

5. Heman the king’s seer in the words of God Besides his musical talent, Heman had also the gift of revelation, to make known to the king the things of God. Asaph and Jeduthun were also seers. 2 Chronicles 29:30; 2 Chronicles 35:15.

To lift up the horn The expression is obscure as it stands in the present text. Some understand it of the use of the horn in the musical service, but as the horn is not named among the instruments used by these Levites, some of the best expositors connect the phrase with what follows, and explain it in the metaphorical sense of increasing one’s power. For this sense of the words comp. 1 Samuel 2:10; Psalms 148:14; Lamentations 2:17. So, to increase Heman’s power and honour God “ gave” him “fourteen sons and three daughters.”
