Historical Commentaries

Scholarly Analysis and Interpretation.

Of the Izharites, namely of the father's-house Shelomoth (1-Chronicles 23:18), his sons were under the head Jahath. The heads of the class formed by David mentioned in 1-Chronicles 24:20-22, Jehdeiah, Isshiah, and Jahath, are not met with in 1 Chron 23 - a clear proof that 1 Chron 23 treats of the fathers'-houses; our section, on the contrary, of the official classes of the Levites.
