Gill's Notes on the Bible
Asaph the chief,.... Of those that were now appointed: otherwise, of the three principal singers, Heman was the chief, and Asaph next, 1 Chronicles 6:33
and next to him Zechariah, Jeiel, Shemiramoth, and Jehiel, and Mattithiah, and Eliab, and Benaiah, and Obededom, and Jeiel, with psalteries, and with harps; to play upon them before the ark at the same time the psalms and songs were vocally sung; the above persons are such as are named before, 1 Chronicles 15:18,
but Asaph made a sound with cymbals; he struck and played upon them, see 1 Chronicles 15:19.
Barnes' Notes on the Bible
This passage is interposed by the writer of Chronicles between two sentences of the parallel passage in Samuel. It contains a detailed account of the service which David instituted at this time, a service out of which grew the more elaborate service of the temple. The language of much of the passage is remarkably archaic, and there can be no reasonable doubt that it is in the main an extract from a record of the time of David.
1 Chronicles 16:5
The occurrence of the name âJeielâ twice in this list is considered suspicious. Hence, the first âJeielâ is thought to be a corrupt reading for âAzielâ 1 Chronicles 15:20, or âJaazielâ 1 Chronicles 15:18.
1 Chronicles 16:8
The Psalm here put before us by the Chronicler, as sung liturgically by Asaph and his brethren on the day of the arkâs entrance into Jerusalem, accords closely with the passages in the present Book of Psalms noted in the marg reff.
It is, apparently, a thanksgiving service composed for the occasion out of Psalms previously existing.
1 Chronicles 16:39
This is the first mention that we have of Gibeon as the place at which the tabernacle of the congregation now rested. Previously it had been at Nob 1 Samuel 21:1-6, from where it was removed probably at the time of the slaughter of the priests by Doeg 1 Samuel 22:18-19. It is uncertain whether Gibeon was regarded as a âhigh placeâ before the transfer to it of the tabernacle: hut thenceforth, until the completion of Solomonâs Temple, it was the âgreat high placeâ 1 Kings 3:4 - a second center of the national worship which for above 50 years was divided between Gibeon and Jerusalem.
1 Chronicles 16:40
Upon the altar of the burnt offering - The original altar of burnt-offering Exodus 27:1-8 continued at Gibeon with the tabernacle 2 Chronicles 1:3, 2 Chronicles 1:5. David must have erected a new altar for sacrifice at Jerusalem 1 Chronicles 16:1. The sacrifices commanded by the Law were, it appears, offered at the former place; at the latter were offered voluntary additional sacrifices.
1 Chronicles 16:41
The rest ... - Rather, âthe rest of the chosen ones, who were mentioned by name.â The âchosen onesâ were âmentioned by nameâ in 1 Chronicles 15:17-24. A portion of them, namely, those named in 1 Chronicles 16:5-6, conducted the service in Jerusalem; the remainder were employed in the worship at Gibeon.
Clarke's Notes on the Bible
Verse 1 Chronicles 16:5. Asaph — See the preceding chapter, 1 Chronicles 15:17, &c.
