(21, 22) These two verses contain one statement, viz :—The sons of Laadan, i.e., The sons of the Gershonite belonging to Laadan, the heads of the houses of Laadan the Gershonite, Jehieli, that is, the sons of Kehieli, Zetham, and Joel his brother, were over the treasures of the house of Jehovah. In other words, Zetham and Joel the chiefs of the clan Jehiel, which was the leading house of the Laadanite branch of Gershon, had charge of the Temple stores. (Comp. 1Ch_23:7-8.) Jehieli looks like the gentilic form of Jehiel, the Jehielite.

Vers. 21, 22. These verses name those who had the care of the treasures of the house of the Lord. They are Gershonites through Laaden, previously called Libni (1Ch_6:17; also Exo_6:17; Num_3:18) The sons named as heads of houses are three, viz. Jehieli (1Ch_23:8) and his sons, Zetham and Joel. Those who think that 1Ch_23:8 carries with it the meaning that Jehieli, Zetham, and Joel were all three brothers, can, in point of fact, plausibly reduce this verse to their shape. For the yod, not welcome at the end of the name Jehieli here, might be read the conjunction vau in both instances in which it occurs. The reading would then run thus: "Jehiel and the sons of Jehiel, both Zetham and Joel his brother."
