Ethan, <\/B>called also Jeduthun<\/I>, 1Ch 9:16<\/span>, 2Ch 35:15<\/span>, and in the titles of divers psalms. <\/P> <\/p>\n Ver. 44-47. And their brethren, the sons of Merari<\/strong>,…. Who were the brethren of the Kohathites and Gershonites, descending from the same ancestor Levi: stood<\/p>\n on the left hand<\/strong>; that is, of Heman, see 1Ch 6:39<\/span>, the chief of whom was Ethan, sometimes called Jeduthun, 1Ch 16:41<\/span> and often in the book of Psalms; his genealogy is traced up to Levi thus; Kishi, called Kushaiah, 1Ch 15:17<\/span> Abdi, Malluch, Hashabiah, Amaziah, Hilkiah, Amzi, Bani, Shamer, Mahli, Mushi, Merari, Levi.<\/p>\n (44-47) The pedigree of Ethan the Merarite, traced back through twelve names to Levi. Ethan is no doubt the same as Jeduthun, 1Ch. 25:1<\/span>; 2Ch. 35:15<\/span>.<\/p>\n (44) And their brethren the sons of Merari.<\/strong>We should say their comrades<\/em> or kinsmen<\/em> (see Note on 1Ch. 6:39<\/span>). Brethren, or brothers, is the natural style for the members of a guild, whether religious like the monastic bodies, or commercial like the city companies of London, or benevolent like the Freemasons. The plural pronoun refers to the two preceding guilds of Heman and Asaph. The Ethanites stood on the left of the Hemanites in the sanctuary, as the Asaphites stood on their right, and this arrangement was hereditary.<\/p>\n Kishi is a contraction of Kushaiah, like Zabdi of Zebadiah. Mahli, Libni, Shimei, Uzza, Shimea, Haggiah, and Asaiah. Now it is quite possible that both lines spring from Mushi son of Merari. We have only to suppose that the name of Mushi has either dropped out or been omitted by design in 1Ch. 6:29<\/span>. In that case, of course, Mahli in each line becomes identical. Next we remark that Libni in Hebrew adds but one letter (1) to Bani; and these two may be variants of the same name. The second line is again more complete than the first, as it supplies Shamer (Shemer) between Mahli and Bani-Libni. Further. Uzzi and Amzi express the same ideathat of strengthand may therefore indicate identity of person. The names Shimei and Shimeah are perhaps inadvertent duplicates of each other; which may also be the case with Amzi and Amaziah in the second series. Haggiah perhaps answers to Hilkiah.<\/p>\n Thus it may be right to regard this pedigree of Ethan as related to the Merarite line of 1Ch. 6:29-30<\/span>, in the same way as those of Heman and Asaph are related to the first drafts of the Kohathite and Gershonite lines of descent, although the connection is not so evident in the present instance, owing perhaps to corruption of the text.<\/p>\n 1Ch. 6:48-49<\/span> constitute the transition from the pedigrees of the three Levitical choir-masters to the line of the sons of AaronEleazar, which is here repeated from Aaron to Ahimaaz. The form of the list is, however, different. Instead of Eleazar begat<\/em> Phinehas, it runs Phinehas his son<\/em> &c. It is more likely that the chronicler found this list already connected with what follows in the source which he used for this section, than that he merely chose to repeat part of what he had already given under a slightly altered form.<\/p>\n their brethren. Heman, from Kohath (Levi’s second son); Asaph, from Gershom (Levi’s eldest son); Ethan, from Merari (Levi’s youngest son). <\/p>\n Merari. The youngest son of Levi (Exo 6:16). <\/p>\n Ethan: 1Ch 25:1, 1Ch 25:3, 1Ch 25:6, Jeduthun, Psa 89:1, *title <\/p>\n Kishi: 1Ch 15:17, Kushaiah <\/p>\n Reciprocal: Num 3:20 – General 1Ch 2:6 – Ethan 2Ch 29:12 – of the sons<\/p>\n 1Ch 6:44. The sons of Merari stood on the left hand The children of the next son of Levi are here mentioned, who had the lowest place assigned them, because they were of the youngest family. So there were three principal singers, who were masters and governors of the whole choir: Heman, descended from Koath, was the prime, who, together with his sons, stood in the middle: Asaph, descended from Gershom, with his sons, stood on his right hand: and Ethan, (called also Jeduthun, 1Ch 9:16; 2Ch 35:15, and in the title of divers Psalms,) descended from Merari, on the left.<\/p>\n And their brethren the sons of Merari [stood] on the left hand: Ethan the son of Kishi, the son of Abdi, the son of Malluch, Ethan, called also Jeduthun, 1Ch 9:16, 2Ch 35:15, and in the titles of divers psalms.

(47) Son of Manli, the son of Mushi.<\/strong>In 1Ch. 6:19<\/span> Mahli and Mushi appear as two sons of Merari; so also at Lev. 3:20. Mahli son of Mushi here must be nephew of the Mahli of those two passages, if the genealogical form is in each case to be understood literally. It is difficult on a first inspection to perceive any connection between the present list and that of the Merarites in 1Ch. 6:29-30<\/span>. The series there is: <\/p>\n
