Carpenter. Hebrew Cheresh, is taken by some to be a surname. Septuagint, "And Ares." It is asserted that the priests and Levites could follow no mechanical profession, (Abulensis) and the Bacbacar only presided over the carpenters, who wrought in the temple. (Menochius) (Tirinus) --- But why might not people of this order employ themselves in such arts and labours, which were never deemed degrading among the Hebrews, nor incompatible with the sacred ministry, during the leisure hours? (Calmet) --- St. Paul did not disdain to make tents. (Haydock)

15. Bakbakkar, Heresh, and Galal] The reading appears to be corrupt, for the analogy of the latter half of the Terse as well as of 1Ch_9:14; 1Ch_9:16 leads us to expect something more than bare names. Neither the LXX. nor the Vulg. give any real help for emending the clause. The corresponding words in Neh. (1Ch_11:17) are Bakbukiah the second among his brethren.

(15, 16) The chronicler here omits the verse Neh_11:16, after which follows, “And Mattaniah son of Micha son of Zabdi son of Asaph, the leader of praise, who used to give thanks after the prayer; and Bakbukiah the second among his brethren, and Abda son of Shammua, son of Galal, son of Jeduthun.”
Bakbakkar and Bakbukiah are clearly variants of the same name, the latter being probably right.

Heresh, and Galal are omitted in Nehemiah 11
Zichri here is doubtless “Zabdi” there: a confusion of similar letters, k, b, r, d.
Obadiah the son of Shemaiah is the same as “Abda son of Shammua.”
Berechiah the son of Asa, the son of Elkanah.—Unmentioned in Nehemiah 11 As the name Elkanah appears in the pedigree of Heman (1Ch_6:34), it is supposed that Berechiah represents the Hemanite guild, which is otherwise conspicuous here by its omission. Perhaps “son of Heman” has dropped out of the text, as there are two names between Mattaniah and Asaph, Obadiah and Jeduthun. It thus appears that 1Ch_9:15-16 are concerned with the Levitieal choirs; comp. 1Ch_9:33.
Villages of the Netophathites.—Netophah was near Bethlehem (Neh_7:26; 1Ch_2:54).
