Divrey Hayamim Alef 26:6 Meaning and Commentary

1 Chronicles 26:6

Also unto Shemaiah his son
His firstborn, ( 1 Chronicles 26:4 ) were sons born, that ruled throughout the house of their father;
were heads of families, eminent and principal men: for they were mighty men of valour;
which their office sometimes required them to be, to guard the temple at night as well as day from thieves and robbers, and to hinder resolute men entering in, unfit for it, and seize on rioters, and quell tumults raised.
