They were also to keep the guard, and to keep out all unclean or forbidden persons, who might sometimes presumptuously attempt to enter into the temple, as Uzziah did, and to prevent or suppress any tumults or disorders which might happen in the temple or in its courts, and to keep the treasures of the temple. 1Ch 26:20<\/span>,22<\/span>,24<\/span>,26<\/span>, and to be officers and judges over Israel<\/I>, 1Ch 26:29<\/span>, and to manage every matter pertaining to God and the affairs of the king<\/I>, 1Ch 26:32<\/span>. <\/P> <\/p>\n 6. mighty men of valour<\/B>Thecircumstance of physical strength is prominently noticed in thischapter, as the office of the porters required them not only to actas sentinels of the sacred edifice and its precious furniture againstattacks of plunderers or popular insurrectionto be, in fact, amilitary guardbut, after the temple was built, to open and shutthe gates, which were extraordinarily large and ponderous.<\/P><\/p>\n Also unto Shemaiah his son<\/strong>,….

They were appointed to attend the temple, to guard all the avenues to it, to open and shut all the outer gates, and attend at them, not only for state but for service. They were also required to direct and instruct those who were going to worship in the courts of the sanctuary in the conduct they were to observe, to encourage those who were timid, to send back the strangers and unclean, and to guard against thieves and others who were enemies to the house of God. 1Ch 26:8, 1Ch 12:28, Jdg 6:12, 2Sa 2:7, *marg. 2Ch 26:17, Neh 11:14, 1Ti 6:12, 2Ti 2:3 <\/p>\n Reciprocal: 1Ch 9:13 – very able men 1Ch 26:30 – men of valour 1Ch 26:32 – men of valour<\/p>\n 1Ch 26:6.
