Esdra 3:10

Kur ndërtuesit hodhën themelet e tempullit të Zotit, ishin të pranishëm priftërinjtë të veshur me rrobat e tyre dhe me bori dhe Levitët, bijtë e Asafit, me cembale për të lëvduar Zotin sipas udhëzimeve të Davidit, mbretit të Izraelit.

Gill's Notes on the Bible

And when the builders laid the foundation of the temple of the Lord,.... The masons, whose work it was, Ezra 3:7

they set the priests in their apparel with trumpets; these were set in a proper place by the prince and the high priest, in their priestly garments, with trumpets in their hands to blow with, as the foundation was laying:

and the Levites the sons of Asaph, with cymbals to praise the Lord, after the ordinance of David king of Israel; these were instruments of brass, and made a tinkling sound, and were by the order of David; and the persons that made use of them; and the songs of praise they were played upon unto; all by his appointment, as well as harps and psalteries, which might now be used, though not expressed; see 1 Chronicles 15:16. So the Messenians, when the walls of their city were raised by Epaminondas, and their houses and temples erected, attended it with sacrifices and prayer, and with piping and singing b.

b Pausan. Messenica, sive, l. 4. p. 368.

Barnes' Notes on the Bible

They set the priests - Or, according to another reading, “The priests stood.”

The Levites the sons of Asaph - i. e., “such of the Levites as were descendants of Asaph.” It would seem as if no descendants of Heman or Jeduthun had returned.

Clarke's Notes on the Bible

Verse Ezra 3:10. After the ordinance of David — With psalms which he composed, acting in the manner which he directed.
