Genesis 39:4, 40:4 Numbers 3:6; 1 Kings 1:15 followed by לְ Numbers 4:9. There often occurs, שֵׁרֵת אֶת־יְיָ concerning the ministering priests, Numbers 18:2; 1 Samuel 2:11, 3:1 and without the acc., Numbers 3:31, 4:12 from which we must distinguish שֵׁרֵת בְּשֵׁם יְיָ Deuteronomy 18:5, Deuteronomy 18:7, i.e. to worship Jehovah by calling upon him, according to the analogy of the phrases קָרָא בְּשֵׁם יְיָ, בֵּרֵךְ בְּשֵׁם יְיָ. A very bold expression, Isaiah 60:7, “the rams of Nebaioth יְשָֽׁרְתוּנֶךְ shall minister to thee,” i.e. shall serve for sacred ministry. Part. מְשָׁרֵת subst. a minister, a servant, Joshua 1:1 specially in holy things, Ezra 8:17 fem. מְשָׁרַת (for מְשָׁרֶתֶת), 1 Kings 1:15.
