Chronicles Chapter Nine
New King James Version (NKJV)
INTRODUCTION TO 1 CHRONICLES 9
The
genealogies of the several tribes being given
according as they were written
in the books of the kings of Israel
1 Chronicles 9:1
an account follows of those who first settled in Jerusalem after their return
from the Babylonish captivity; of the Israelites
1 Chronicles 9:2
of the priests
1 Chronicles 9:10
of the Levites
and of the charge and offices of several of the priests and
Levites
1 Chronicles 9:14
and the chapter is concluded with a repetition of the genealogy of the
ancestors and posterity of Saul king of Israel
1 Chronicles 9:35.
1 Chronicles
9:1 So all Israel
was recorded by genealogies
and indeed
they were inscribed in the book
of the kings of Israel. But Judah was carried away captive to Babylon because
of their unfaithfulness.
YLT
1And all Israel have
reckoned themselves by genealogy
and lo
they are written on the book of the
kings of Israel and Judah -- they were removed to Babylon for their trespass.
So all Israel were reckoned by genealogies
.... Not now
by the writer of this book in the preceding chapters; for two of the tribes are
not reckoned at all
and the rest but in part; but there had been kept an exact
account of them:
and
behold
they were written in the book of the kings of Israel; not in the
canonical book or books of Kings
but in the annals
journals
and diaries
which each king took care to be kept with some exactness
often referred to in
the preceding books; out of which this writer
under a divine direction
had
taken what was proper to be continued
and had carried the genealogy down to
the captivity of the ten tribes; but the genealogy being lost with them
he
could proceed no further
nor say anything more concerning them:
but Judah; for so the word should be stopped
and read according to the
Hebrew accents:
who were carried away to
Babylon for their transgression; their idolatry
and were now returned
again; of them the writer proposes to give a further account.
1 Chronicles
9:2 2 And
the first inhabitants who dwelt in their possessions in their cities were
Israelites
priests
Levites
and the Nethinim.
YLT
2And the first inhabitants
who [are] in their possession
in their cities
of Israel
[are] the priests
the Levites
and the Nethinim.
Now the first inhabitants that dwelt in their possessions in their
cities
.... Who first returned from Babylon upon the proclamation of
Cyrus
and enjoyed their former possessions
and dwelt in the cities they had
before
or in such as were allotted them
or they chose:
were
the
Israelites
the priests
Levites
and the Nethinims; the whole
body that returned were divided into four classes
as they had been before the
captivity; the Israelites were the common people in general
the body politic;
the priests
the ecclesiastics
who officiated in sacred things; the Levites
who ministered to them; and the Nethinims were such persons as were
"given"
as the word signifies
to do servile work for the sanctuary
as
to be hewers of wood and drawers of water; such were the Gibeonites
Joshua 9:27
and
such as were appointed by David for such work
see Ezra 8:20.
1 Chronicles 9:3 3 Now in Jerusalem the
children of Judah dwelt
and some of the children of Benjamin
and of the
children of Ephraim and Manasseh:
YLT
3And in Jerusalem dwelt of
the sons of Judah
and of the sons of Benjamin
and of the sons of Ephraim and
Manasseh:
And in Jerusalem dwelt of the children of Judah
and of the
children of Benjamin
.... Of which tribes were the largest number that went into
and
returned out of
captivity:
and of the children of Ephraim and Manasseh; such of those
tribes who had joined the others when Jeroboam introduced his idolatry
or had
fled to them when Samaria was besieged and taken by Shalmaneser
and so went
into captivity with Judah
and now returned; and as many of them as took the
advantage of the proclamation of Cyrus
who were carried captive with the ten
tribes.
1 Chronicles 9:4 4 Uthai the son of Ammihud
the son of Omri
the son of Imri
the son of Bani
of the descendants of Perez
the son of Judah.
YLT
4Uthai son of Ammihud
son
of Omri
son of Imri
son of Bani
of the sons of Pharez
son of Judah.
Uthai
the son of Ammihud
.... Called Athaiah
Nehemiah 11:4
though his ancestors there are differently reckoned here; his genealogy here is
traced from his father Ammihud
through Omri
Imri
Bani
Pharez
to Judah.
1 Chronicles 9:5 5 Of the Shilonites: Asaiah
the firstborn and his sons.
YLT
5And of the Shilonite:
Asaiah the first-born
and his sons.
And of the Shilonites
.... Not called so from
the city of Shiloh
which was in Ephraim; whereas these here intended were of
the tribe of Judah
and were either the descendants of a man whose name was
Shiloni
Nehemiah 11:5 or
rather these are the same with the Shelanites
Numbers 26:20 so
called from Shelah the son of Judah; and so the Targum here is
"and of the
tribe of Shelah:"
Asaiah the firstborn
and his sons; the same with Maaseiah
Nehemiah 11:5.
1 Chronicles 9:6 6 Of the sons of Zerah:
Jeuel
and their brethren—six hundred and ninety.
YLT
6And of the sons of Zerah:
Jeuel
and their brethren
six hundred and ninety.
And of the sons of Zerah
.... Another son of
Judah:
Jeuel
and their brethren; six hundred and ninety; or their
kinsmen; for this number includes all of the posterity of Pharez
Shelah and
Zerah mentioned.
1 Chronicles 9:7 7 Of the sons of Benjamin:
Sallu the son of Meshullam
the son of Hodaviah
the son of Hassenuah;
YLT
7And of the sons of
Benjamin: Sallu son of Meshullam
son of Hodaviah
son of Hassenuah
And of the sons of Benjamin
.... Who were of the
tribe of Benjamin
and went with Judah into captivity
and returned with them
and such of them as dwelt in Jerusalem before that:
Sallu the son of Meshullam; whose pedigree is
differently given
Nehemiah 11:7
the son of Hodaviah
the son of Hassenaah; perhaps these
men had two names
there called Joel and Pedaiah.
1 Chronicles 9:8 8 Ibneiah the son of
Jeroham; Elah the son of Uzzi
the son of Michri; Meshullam the son of
Shephatiah
the son of Reuel
the son of Ibnijah;
YLT
8and Ibneiah son of Jeroham
and Elah son of Uzzi
son of Michri
and Meshullam son of Shephatiah
son of
Reuel
son of Ibnijah.
And Ibneiah the son of Jeroham
.... Who with two more
Elah and Meshullam
whose ancestors are given
of whom we have no mention
elsewhere
were all of the tribe of Benjamin
said to settle at Jerusalem.
1 Chronicles 9:9 9 and their brethren
according to their generations—nine hundred and fifty-six. All these men were
heads of a father’s house in their fathers’ houses.
YLT
9And their brethren
according to their generations
[are] nine hundred and fifty and six. All these
[are] men
heads of fathers
according to the house of their fathers.
And their brethren
according to their generations
nine hundred
amd fifty and six
.... Which was the number of the Benjaminites there resident put
together
and which greatly exceeded that of Judah
1 Chronicles 9:6.
all these men were chief of the fathers
in the house of their
fathers; principal men in the families of the tribes of Judah and
Benjamin
even all the seven before mentioned.
1 Chronicles 9:10 10 Of the priests: Jedaiah
Jehoiarib
and Jachin;
YLT
10And of the priests:
Jedaiah
and Jehoiarib
and Jachin
And of the priests
.... Who returned and dwelt at Jerusalem:
Jedaiah
and Jehoiarib
and Jachin; Jedaiah was the son of
Jehoiarib
and Jachin is called Jachin
Nehemiah 11:10.
1 Chronicles 9:11 11 Azariah the son of
Hilkiah
the son of Meshullam
the son of Zadok
the son of Meraioth
the son
of Ahitub
the officer over the house of God;
YLT
11and Azariah son of Hilkiah
son of Meshullam
son of Zadok
son of Meraioth
son of Ahitub
leader in the
house of God;
And Azariah the son of Hilkiah
.... That is
the son of
Azariah
whose name was Seraiah
see 1 Chronicles 6:13
whose pedigree is traced up from Hilkiah through Meshullam
called Shallum
1 Chronicles 6:12.
Zadok
Meraioth
to Ahitub:
the ruler of the house of God; high priest in it; which
is to be understood of Ahitub
and not of Azariah or Seraiah in the time of
Ezra; for Joshua was then high priest.
1 Chronicles 9:12 12 Adaiah the son of Jeroham
the son of Pashur
the son of Malchijah; Maasai the son of Adiel
the son of
Jahzerah
the son of Meshullam
the son of Meshillemith
the son of Immer;
YLT
12and Adaiah son of Jeroham
son of Pashhur
son of Malchijah
and Maasai son of Adiel
son of Jahzerah
son
of Meshullam
son of Meshillemith
son of Immer.
And Adaiah the son of Jeroham
the son of Pashur
.... In this
genealogy
between Jeroham and Pashur
were three more here omitted
Pelaliah
Amzi
Zechariah
Nehemiah 11:12
and
then Pashur the son of Malchijah
as here:
and Maasiai the son of Adiel; whose pedigree is traced
up from hence
through Jahzerah
Meshullam
Meshillemith
to Immer; one of the
five heads of the courses settled by David
1 Chronicles 24:14.
The names of this man
and of his ancestors
are given
with some variation
in
Nehemiah 11:13.
1 Chronicles 9:13 13 and their brethren
heads
of their fathers’ houses—one thousand seven hundred and sixty. They were
very able men for the work of the service of the house of God.
YLT
13And their brethren
heads
to the house of their fathers
a thousand and seven hundred and sixty
mighty
in valour
[are] for the work of the service of the house of God.
And their brethren
heads of the house of their fathers
one
thousand and seven hundred and threescore. These
with other
priests
made up this number
which was greater than those of Judah and
Benjamin
that dwelt in Jerusalem
put together:
very able men for the work of the service of the house of God: men that had
not only strength of body
which some part of the work of the priests required;
but had courage and fortitude of mind to set about the service of God with
cheerfulness
and to preserve it from corruption.
1 Chronicles 9:14 14 Of the Levites: Shemaiah
the son of Hasshub
the son of Azrikam
the son of Hashabiah
of the sons of
Merari;
YLT
14And of the Levites:
Shemaiah son of Hashshub
son of Azrikam
son of Hashabiah
of the sons of
Merari;
And of the Levites
.... Having given an account of the two
first classes of the people
the Israelites and priests
the author of the book
now proceeds to the Levites
the third class; and the first mentioned is Shemaiah
whose ancestors
Hashub
Azrikam
and Hashabiah:
were of the sons of
Merari; the third son of Levi.
1 Chronicles 9:15 15 Bakbakkar
Heresh
Galal
and Mattaniah the son of Micah
the son of Zichri
the son of Asaph;
YLT
15and Bakbakkar
Heresh
and
Galal
and Mattaniah son of Micah
son of Zichri
son of Asaph;
And Bakbakkar
Heresh
and Galal
and Mattaniah
.... Four more
of the chief of the Levites
the pedigree of the last of which is traced up by
Micah and Zichri to Asaph
the singer in the times of David
a descendant of
Gershon
the first son of Levi; the first of these is thought by HillerusF20Onamastic.
Sacr. p. 401
548. to be the same with Bakbukiah
Nehemiah 11:17.
1 Chronicles 9:16 16 Obadiah the son of
Shemaiah
the son of Galal
the son of Jeduthun; and Berechiah the son of Asa
the son of Elkanah
who lived in the villages of the Netophathites.
YLT
16and Obadiah son of
Shemariah
son of Galal
son of Jeduthun
and Berechiah
son of Asa
son of
Elkanah
who is dwelling in the villages of the Netophathite.
And Obadiah the son of Shemaiah
.... Called Abda the son
of Shammua
Nehemiah 11:17.
the son of Galal
the son of Jeduthun; who was
Ethan
another of the singers in the time of David:
and Berechiah the son of Asa
the son of Elkanah
that dwelt in
the villages of the Netophathites; the villages about
Netophah
which was in the tribe of Judah
1 Chronicles 2:54
Nehemiah 7:26 which
may be understood either of Elkanah
the ancestor of Berechiah
whose dwelling
was there; or of Berechiah
and must be rendered:
who had dwelt there; for now he dwelt at
Jerusalem.
1 Chronicles 9:17 17 And the gatekeepers were
Shallum
Akkub
Talmon
Ahiman
and their brethren. Shallum was the
chief.
YLT
17And the gatekeepers [are]
Shallum
and Akkub
and Talmon
and Ahiman
and their brethren -- Shallum [is]
the head;
And the porters
.... Or keepers of the gates of the
tabernacle:
were Shallum
and Akkub
and Talmon
and Ahiman
and their
brethren; Shallum was the chief; of these four porters
and their brethren.
1 Chronicles 9:18 18 Until then they had
been gatekeepers for the camps of the children of Levi at the King’s Gate
on the east.
YLT
18and hitherto they [are] at
the gate of the king eastward; they [are] the gatekeepers for the companies of
the sons of Levi.
Who hitherto waited in the king's gate eastward
.... At the
gate through which the king went into the temple
and was at the east of it;
and here these porters were placed in the same order after the captivity
and
their return from it
as before:
they were porters in the companies of the children of Levi; or in the
camp of Levi
which was placed around the tabernacle
as in the wilderness: the
Septuagint version is
"these are the gates of the camp of the children of
Levi"; at which these porters were placed.
1 Chronicles 9:19 19 Shallum the son of Kore
the son of Ebiasaph
the son of Korah
and his brethren
from his father’s
house
the Korahites
were in charge of the work of the service
gatekeepers of the tabernacle. Their fathers had been keepers of the entrance
to the camp of the Lord.
YLT
19And Shallum son of Kore
son of Ebiasaph
son of Korah
and his brethren
of the house of his father
the Korahites
[are] over the work of the service
keepers of the thresholds of
the tent
and their fathers [are] over the camp of Jehovah
keepers of the
entrance;
And Shallum the son of Kore
.... The same as in 1 Chronicles 9:17
whose pedigree is traced up to Ebiasaph the son of Korah
see Exodus 6:24.
and his brethren
of the house of his father
the Korahites; so called
because they descended from Korah:
were over the work of
the service
keepers of the gates of the tabernacle; until the
temple was built:
and their fathers being over the host of the Lord; the Levites
who were the Lord's army
and whose service is represented as a warfare
Numbers 4:5.
were keepers of the
entry; into the tabernacle
that none might enter that were impure; or
into the court of the priests
excepting priests; or into the holiest of all
as Kimchi suggests.
1 Chronicles 9:20 20 And Phinehas the son of
Eleazar had been the officer over them in time past; the Lord was
with him.
YLT
20and Phinehas son of Eleazar
hath been leader over them formerly; Jehovah [is] with him.
And Phinehas the son of Eleazar was the ruler over them in time
past
.... Over the host
over the Levites
and the chief of them;
which is to be understood of Phinehas the son of Eleazar
in the time of Moses
who succeeded his father in that post
see Numbers 3:32 though
some think
as Kimchi observes
that this was not Phinehas the priest
but a
certain Levite of this name in this post; but since he is said to be in time
past
it may very well be understood of him: and it also is observed:
and the Lord was with him; inspiring him with zeal
for his honour and glory
assisting and strengthening him to do his will and
work
as particularly in the affair of Zimri
Numbers 25:7
the
Targum is
"the Word of the Lord was for his help;'
this
may be said for the encouragement of him that was in the same office now.
1 Chronicles 9:21 21 Zechariah the son of
Meshelemiah was keeper of the door of the tabernacle of meeting.
YLT
21Zechariah son of
Meshelemiah [is] gatekeeper at the opening of the tent of meeting.
And Zechariah the son of Meshelemiah
.... Some
think this refers to one that was in the times of David; but it seems rather to
respect one that was after the Babylonish captivity
see 1 Chronicles 26:1
though he and his brethren were in an office established in the times of David
and the order of which was now
as then
observed:
was porter of the door of the tabernacle of the congregation: who was the
chief porter
and kept the door; either that led into the outer court
and kept
out all unclean persons from entering there; or that which led into the court
of the priests
that none but priests might enter there.
1 Chronicles 9:22 22 All those chosen as
gatekeepers were two hundred and twelve. They were recorded by their
genealogy
in their villages. David and Samuel the seer had appointed them to
their trusted office.
YLT
22All of those who are chosen
for gatekeepers at the thresholds [are] two hundred and twelve; they [are] in
their villages
by their genealogy; they whom David and Samuel the seer
appointed in their office.
All those that were chosen to be porters in the gates were two
hundred and twelve
.... As fixed in the days of David
and might not be fewer:
these were reckoned by their genealogies in their villages; where they
dwelt:
whom David and Samuel the seer did ordain in their set office; the scheme
was first drawn by Samuel the prophet
and communicated to David
who put it
into execution
to be constantly and perpetually observed.
1 Chronicles 9:23 23 So they and their children
were in charge of the gates of the house of the Lord
the house of
the tabernacle
by assignment.
YLT
23And they and their sons
[are] over the gates of the house of Jehovah
even of the house of the tent
by
watches.
So they and their children had the oversight of the gates of the
house of the Lord
.... They that were appointed in David's time to watch the gates
of the temple
their posterity succeeded them in that office; for it was
hereditary:
namely
the house of the tabernacle
by wards; that which
was at Gibeon in David's time
and now one was erected until the temple was
built.
1 Chronicles 9:24 24 The gatekeepers were
assigned to the four directions: the east
west
north
and south.
YLT
24At four sides are the
gatekeepers
east
west
north
and south.
In four quarters were the porters
.... For
according to the
Targum on 1 Chronicles 9:22
there were twenty four wards:
towards the east
west
north
and south; and
as the
same paraphrase has it
six wards to the east
six to the west
six to the
north
and six to the south.
1 Chronicles 9:25 25 And their brethren in
their villages had to come with them from time to time for seven days.
YLT
25And their brethren in their
villages [are] to come in for seven days from time to time with these.
And their brethren
which were in their villages
.... Assigned
them to dwell in:
were to come after seven days from time to time with them; there was a
new course of them every week; the old ones went off of duty
and another
course succeeded
which came out of the villages where they dwelt
and the old
course retired to theirs.
1 Chronicles 9:26 26 For in this trusted office
were four chief gatekeepers; they were Levites. And they had charge over
the chambers and treasuries of the house of God.
YLT
26For in office [are] the
four chiefs of the gatekeepers
they are Levites
and they have been over the
chambers
and over the treasuries of the house of God
For these Levites
the four chief porters
were in their set office
.... The four
chief porters who were over all the two hundred and twelve
and had one over
them
1 Chronicles 9:17
these were never changed
nor went into the country villages; but were always
upon the spot
and in their office
superintending the rest:
and were over the chambers and treasuries of the house of God; see 1 Chronicles 26:20.
1 Chronicles 9:27 27 And they lodged all
around the house of God because they had the responsibility
and they were
in charge of opening it every morning.
YLT
27and round about the house
of God they lodge
for on them [is] the watch
and they [are] over the opening
even morning by morning.
And they lodged round about the house of God
.... In
chambers on the outward wall about it
that they might be near to do their
office:
because the charge was upon them; to guard the house:
and the opening thereof every morning pertained to them; that is
the
opening of the doors of the mountain of the house
and the court of women; for
as for others
that appertained to the priests
as Dr. LightfootF21Temple-Service
c. 7. sect. 1. observes; under the second temple
it is saidF23Misn.
Shekalim
c. 5. sect. 1.
Ben Geber was over the shutting of the gates in the
evening
and so of opening in the morning.
1 Chronicles 9:28 28 Now some of them
were in charge of the serving vessels
for they brought them in and took them
out by count.
YLT
28And [some] of them [are]
over the vessels of service
for by number they bring them in
and by number
they take them out.
And certain of them had the charge of the ministering vessels
that
they should bring them in and out by tale. Which the priests used in
sacrificing
and which the Levites brought to them
and returned again to their
proper places.
1 Chronicles 9:29 29 Some
of them were appointed over the furnishings and over all the implements
of the sanctuary
and over the fine flour and the wine and the oil and the
incense and the spices.
YLT
29And [some] of them are
appointed over the vessels
even over all the vessels of the sanctuary
and
over the fine flour
and the wine
and the oil
and the frankincense
and the
spices.
Some of them also were appointed to oversee the vessels
and all
the instruments of the sanctuary
.... They were committed
to their care; they delivered them out on occasion
and their business was to
see that they were returned when they had done their use and service:
and the fine flour
and the wine
and the oil
and the
frankincense
and the spices; which were used in meat offerings
drink
offerings
&c. see 1 Chronicles 26:20
under the second temple
Ahiah was over the libations or drink offeringsF24Ibid.
(Misn. Shekalim
c. 5. sect. 1.) .
1 Chronicles 9:30 30 And some of the
sons of the priests made the ointment of the spices.
YLT
30And [some] of the sons of
the priests are mixing the mixture for spices.
And some of the sons of the priests made the ointment of the
spices. For though the Levites had the care of the spices
they might not
make the ointment with them
only the priests
see Exodus 30:23.
1 Chronicles 9:31 31 Mattithiah of the Levites
the firstborn of Shallum the Korahite
had the trusted office over the things
that were baked in the pans.
YLT
31And Mattithiah
of the
Levites (he [is] the first-born to Shallum the Korahite)
[is] in office over
the work of the pans.
And Mattithiah
one of the Levites
who was the firstborn of
Shallum the Korahite
.... Of whom see 1 Chronicles 9:19
had the set office over the things that were made in the pans; the meat
offerings that were made in pans; and so had the care of the fine flour
oil
and frankincense used in them
which he delivered to the priests when
necessary
see Leviticus 2:5
the
Septuagint version is
"over the works of the sacrifice of the pan of the
high priest;'as if it respected peculiarly his meat offering
Leviticus 6:20
we
read in the MisnahF25Menachot
c. 11. sect. 3. & Tamid
c. 1.
sect. 3. of the offerings of the high priest
as expressed by this word
which
it signifies
and not pans
but what was fried in themF26Vid.
Sheringham. in Misn. Yoma
c. 2. sect. 3. p. 16. ; and Ben Melech on the place
says
this man was an high priest who offered every day the tenth part of an
ephah in a pan
half of it in the morning
and half of it in the evening
according to Leviticus 6:20
but
that cannot be
for certain it is he was a Levite
as the text expresses it.
1 Chronicles 9:32 32 And some of their brethren
of the sons of the Kohathites were in charge of preparing the showbread
for every Sabbath.
YLT
32And of the sons of the
Kohathite
[some] of their brethren [are] over the bread of the arrangement
to
prepare [it] sabbath by sabbath.
And other of their brethren
of the sons of the Kohathites
were
over the shewbread
to prepare it every sabbath
.... Twelve loaves of
which were set every week before the ark upon the shewbread table
and the old
ones taken away: now the work of these Levites was to make this shewbread
and
get it ready every week to be set upon the table
and which was done not by them
but by priests; under the second temple
the family of Garmu was set over this
workF1Misn. Shekalim
ut supra. (c. 5. sect. 1.) .
1 Chronicles 9:33 33 These are the singers
heads of the fathers’ houses of the Levites
who lodged in the
chambers
and were free from other duties; for they were employed
in that work day and night.
YLT
33And these who sing
heads
of fathers of the Levites
in the chambers
[are] free
for by day and by night
[they are] over them in the work.
And these are the singers
chief of the fathers of the Levites
.... Others of
them were employed in singing
and were masters of the song
and presided in
that service
see 1 Chronicles 6:31
who remaining
in the chambers were free; from all other work and
service; and there they abode
even in the chambers of the temple
that they
might be near to perform their work
and not be defiled
and made unfit for it:
for they were employed in that work day and night; some or other
of them
either in composing or singing psalms and hymns
or teaching others
how to sing them.
1 Chronicles 9:34 34 These heads of the
fathers’ houses of the Levites were heads throughout their
generations. They dwelt at Jerusalem.
YLT
34These heads of the fathers
of the Levites throughout their generations [are] heads. These have dwelt in
Jerusalem.
These chief fathers of the Levites were chief throughout their
