(7) Of the Gershonites.—1Ch_23:7-11 give the names of nine Gershonite houses, or guilds. David’s “courses” of Levites were formed according to the natural divisions already existing: i.e., they coincided with the father-houses. They were doubtless twenty-four in number, like those of their brethren the musicians (1Ch_25:31), and like the priestly classes (1Ch_24:4). So states Josephus (Ant. vii. 14, 7).
Laadan, and Shimei.—See 1Ch_6:2, where the two principal branches of the Gershonites are called “Libni” and Shimei. “Laadan” is hardly the same as Libni, but a branch prominent in the time of David.
