Bible Verse Review
from Treasury of Scripure Knowledge
Aziel: 1 Chronicles 15:18, Jaaziel
Alamoth: Psalms 46:1, *title
Reciprocal: 1 Chronicles 16:5 - psalteries and with harps 1 Chronicles 23:8 - Jehiel 1 Chronicles 24:25 - Zechariah
Gill's Notes on the Bible
And Zechariah, and Aziel, and Shemiramoth, and Jehiel, and Unni, and Eliab, and Maaseiah, and Benaiah,.... Who were eight of the second degree; Aziel is the same with Jaaziel, 1 Chronicles 15:18 and Ben is left out, in whose room Azaziah, in the next verse, seems to be put; Ben is thought to be sick or dead before they came to execute their office, and whom the father of Kimchi takes to be the same with him who is expressed in the title of Psalms 9:1 which title is, "on Muthlabben", or the death of Ben: these were appointed to sound
with psalteries on Alamoth; psalteries were another kind of instruments of music; and Alamoth was either the beginning of a song, to the tune of which those instruments played, or the tune itself, and the note of it; either the treble or counter tenor, a shrill sound, like that of organs, which this word sometimes signifies, see Psalms 46:1.
Barnes' Notes on the Bible
Psalteries on Alamoth - Probably, psalteries whose tone resembled the voices of girls (×¢×××ת âaÌlaÌmoÌth). Compare the âfemale flutesâ of the Lydians.
Clarke's Notes on the Bible
Verse 1 Chronicles 15:20. With psalteries on Alamoth — Some suppose that the word signifies virgins, or women singers, the persons mentioned here being appointed to accompany them with psalteries, and preside over them.
The Vulgate says arcana cantabant, they sang secret things or mysteries; probably prophetic hymns.
