Commentary on Nehemiah 11:172 voices
“To begin - In the publick and solemn prayers and praises, which were constantly joined with the morning and evening sacrifice, at which the singers were present, and praised God with a psalm or hymn which, this man began.”
John Wesley · Explanatory Notes upon the Old Testament, 1765Evangelical
“Observe, Thanksgiving is necessary in prayer; they should go together; giving thanks for former mercies is a becoming way of begging further mercies. And care should be taken in public service that every thing be done in the best manner, decently and in good order-- in prayer, that one speak and the rest join--in singing, that one begin and the rest follow.”
Matthew Henry · Commentary on the Whole Bible, 1710Puritan
- Nehemiah 12:9
Bakbukiah and Unni, their associates, stood across from them in the services.
Commentary on Nehemiah 12:91 voice
“Also Bakbukiah and Unni,.... Two other Levites; the first is mentioned in Neh 11:17, their brethren, were over against them in the watches; the Levites were divided into twenty four wards, and these were placed one against another, 1Ch 23:6.”
John Gill · Exposition of the Old Testament (1748-1763)Reformed
- Nehemiah 12:25
Mattaniah, Bakbukiah, Obadiah, Meshullam, Talmon, and Akkub were gatekeepers who guarded the storerooms at the gates.
Commentary on Nehemiah 12:252 voices
“Mattaniah, and Bakbukiah, Obadiah, Meshullam, Talmon, Akkub, were porters,.... At the gates of the temple, see 1Ch 9:15, keeping the ward, at the thresholds of the gates; of the temple, where they stood and watched; or ‘at the collection of the gates’, meaning either where the people were gathered together, or where money gathered was laid up; and so some render it, ‘the treasuries of the gates’: unless a place called Asuppim should be meant, 1Ch 26:15.”
John Gill · Exposition of the Old Testament (1748-1763)Reformed
“In 1Ch 9:17, 1Ch 9:24, 1Ch 9:26, four families of porters only are mentioned; six are implied here, in Neh 7:45, and in Ezr 2:42. From 1Ch 26:14-19 it appears that the temple had four chief gates, fronting the cardinal points, and two minor ones, ‘toward Asuppim,’ and ‘at Parbar.’”
