The Pulpit Commentary 1880 · Public Domain Obed-edom with their brethren. Explanation is needed of the…
Obed-edom with their brethren. Explanation is needed of the plural pronoun "their." Either another name is wanted with Obededom, or tacit reference is made to "Asaph and his brethren," as though the name Asaph had not been followed in its own place by the clause "and his brethren." Keil draws attention to the "three score and two" of 1Ch_26:8, in connection with the three score and eight of this place; and it has been proposed to make up this number by some of the sons of Hosah, of our following verse and of 1Ch_26:11. In this case the name Hesah might be the name missing before, "and their brethren." Conjecture, however, has not sufficient clue here to warrant it, and the textual state of this verse must be debited with the obscurity. The ambiguity respecting the name Obed-edom has already (1Ch_13:14) been alluded to. Neglecting this ambiguity, it may be repeated that Obed-edom, son of Jedithun (as the Keri of this passage is) was a Merarite Levite, while Obed-edom son of Jeduthun (1Ch_15:25) was of Gath-rimmon, a Gittite (2Sa_6:10-12; Jos_21:24) a Kohathite, (1Ch_6:66, 1Ch_6:69) and a Korhite.
