(6) Jahaziel.--Not mentioned in 1 Chronicles 15, unless he be the Eliezer of 1Chronicles 16:24. The number of these musicians is twelve, suggesting the twelve tribes of Israel. With trumpets.--Clarions, or straight trumpets. Continually.--The Hebrew term is a special one, denoting at fixed and regularly recurring services. Verse 6. - Jahaziel. Probably the Eliezer, who in 1 Chronicles 15:24 is coupled as priest with Benaiah, should stand in the place of this name or else vice versa. 16:1-6 Though God's word and ordinances may be clouded and eclipsed for a time, they shall shine out of obscurity. This was but a tent, a humble dwelling, yet this was the tabernacle which David, in his psalms, often speaks of with so much affection. David showed himself generous to his subjects, as he had found God gracious to him. Those whose hearts are enlarged with holy joy, should show it by being open-handed.Benaiah also and Jahaziel the priests,.... These were appointed to blowwith trumpets continually before the ark of the covenant of the Lord; morning and evening. |
