1 Chronik 9:31 Meaning and Commentary

1 Chronicles 9:31

And Mattithiah, one of the Levites, who was the firstborn of
Shallum the Korahite
Of whom see ( 1 Chronicles 9:19 ) ,

had the set office over the things that were made in the pans;
the meat offerings that were made in pans; and so had the care of the fine flour, oil, and frankincense used in them, which he delivered to the priests when necessary, see ( Leviticus 2:5 ) , the Septuagint version is,

``over the works of the sacrifice of the pan of the high priest;''

as if it respected peculiarly his meat offering, ( Leviticus 6:20 Leviticus 6:21 ) , we read in the Misnah ^F25 of the offerings of the high priest, as expressed by this word, which it signifies, and not pans, but what was fried in them {z}; and Ben Melech on the place says, this man was an high priest who offered every day the tenth part of an ephah in a pan, half of it in the morning, and half of it in the evening, according to ( Leviticus 6:20 ) , but that cannot be, for certain it is he was a Levite, as the text expresses it.

29 und ihrer etliche waren bestellt über die Gefäße und über alles heilige Gerät, über Semmelmehl, über Wein, über Öl, über Weihrauch, über Spezereien.

30 Und der Priester Kinder machten etliche das Salböl mit Spezereien.

31 Und Matthithja, aus den Leviten, dem ersten Sohn Sallums, des Korahiters, waren vertraut die Pfannen.

32 Aus den Kahathitern aber, ihren Brüdern, waren etliche über die Schaubrote, sie zuzurichten auf alle Sabbate.

33 Jene aber sind die Sänger, die Häupter der Vaterhäuser der Leviten, die in den Kammern keinen Dienst hatten; denn Tag und Nacht waren sie in ihrem Geschäft.
