(4) Moreover the sons of Obed-edom.--And Obed-edom had sons. Obed-edom (1Chronicles 15:24) is called a son of Jeduthun in 1Chronicles 16:38. This Jeduthun was not the Merarite chief musician, but a Korhite. (Comp. 1Chronicles 26:1; 1Chronicles 26:10; 1Chronicles 26:19.)

Verses 4, 5. - Here we have the enumeration of eight sons of Obed-edom (1 Chronicles 15:21, 24; 1 Chronicles 16:38). That in this last reference Obed-edom seems to be called "son of Jeduthun" is owing probably to the omission of a name. For former occurrences of the sentence, God blessed him, with its present evident allusion, see 1 Chronicles 13:14; 2 Samuel 6:11. To this passage, the expression of 1 Chronicles 25:5, "to lift up the horn," is probably analogous, where see comment.
