1 Chronicles 15:18

15:18 along with some of their relatives who were second in rank, including Zechariah, ³  Jaaziel, Shemiramoth, Jehiel, Unni, Eliab, Benaiah, Maaseiah, Mattithiah, Eliphelehu, Mikneiah, Obed-Edom, and Jeiel, the gatekeepers.

1 Chronicles 25:3

25:3 From the sons of Jeduthun: ⁴  Gedaliah, Zeri, ⁵  Jeshaiah, ⁶  Hashabiah, and Mattithiah – six in all, ⁷  under supervision of their father Jeduthun, who prophesied as he played a harp, giving thanks and praise to the Lord.

[15:21]  ¹ tn The meaning of the Hebrew word שְׁמִינִית (shÿminit) is uncertain; perhaps it refers to a particular style of music. See HALOT 1562 s.v. שְׁמִינֹי.

[15:21]  ² tn Heb “for” or “according to.”

[15:18]  ³ tc The Hebrew text adds בֶּן (ben, “son”) here; the word is omitted in three Hebrew mss and most LXX mss. If the word is original, perhaps the name of Zechariah’s father was accidentally omitted. Some English versions treat the word as an additional name in the list (“Ben”; e.g., KJV, ASV, NASB).

[25:3]  ⁵ tn Heb “belonging to Jeduthun, the sons of Jeduthun.”

[25:3]  ⁶ tn This name appears as “Izri” in v. 10.

[25:3]  ⁷ tc One Hebrew ms and some LXX mss supply the name “Shimei” after “Jeshaiah.” Most Hebrew mss omit the name here (but cf. v. 17).

[25:3]  ⁸ tc The list includes only five names. Apparently the name “Shimei” (see v. 17), which appears in one medieval Hebrew ms and in the LXX, has been accidentally omitted from the Hebrew text.
