- Exodus 6:21
The sons of Izhar were Korah, Nepheg, and Zichri.
Commentary on Exodus 6:211 voice
Korah - Though he became a rebel against God and Moses, (see Num 16:1, etc)., yet Moses, in his great impartiality, inserts his name among those of his other progenitors.
Adam Clarke· Commentary on the BibleEvangelical
- 1 Chronicles 8:27
Jaareshiah, Elijah, and Zichri were the sons of Jeroham.
- 1 Chronicles 9:15
Bakbakkar, Heresh, Galal, and Mattaniah son of Mica, the son of Zichri, the son of Asaph;
Commentary on 1 Chronicles 9:151 voice
And Bakbakkar, Heresh, and Galal, and Mattaniah,.... Four more of the chief of the Levites, the pedigree of the last of which is traced up by Micah and Zichri to Asaph, the singer in the times of David, a descendant of Gershon, the first son of Levi; the first of these is thought by Hillerus (t) to be the same with Bakbukiah, Neh 11:17. (t) Onamastic. Sacr. p. 401, 548.

- 1 Chronicles 26:25
His relatives through Eliezer included Rehabiah his son, Jeshaiah his son, Joram his son, Zichri his son, and Shelomith his son.
Commentary on 1 Chronicles 26:251 voice
None of those Levites who were employed in the service of the sanctuary, none of the singers or porters, were concerned in this outward business; either one was enough to engage the whole man or it was presumption to undertake both. Their charge was both in all business of the Lord, and in the service of the kings,
Matthew Henry· Commentary on the Whole Bible, 1710Puritan
- 1 Chronicles 27:16
These officers were in charge of the tribes of Israel: Over the Reubenites was Eliezer son of Zichri; over the Simeonites was Shephatiah son of Maacah;
Commentary on 1 Chronicles 27:162 voices
The ruler - These were the princes of the tribes, the constant rulers of the tribes; who seem to have had a superior power to these twenty four captains, and therefore are named before them, being probably the king's chief counsellors and assistants in the great affairs of his kingdom.
John Wesley· Explanatory Notes upon the Old Testament, 1765Evangelical
Over the tribes of Israel - In this enumeration there is no mention of the tribes of Asher and Gad. Probably the account of these has been lost from this register. These rulers appear to have been all honorary men, without pay, like the lords lieutenants of our counties.
Adam Clarke· Commentary on the BibleEvangelical
- 2 Chronicles 17:16
and next to him, Amasiah son of Zichri, the volunteer for the LORD, and with him 200,000 mighty men of valor.
Commentary on 2 Chronicles 17:162 voices
And next him was Amasiah the son of Zichri,.... He encamped next to him, as the Targum: who willingly offered himself unto the Lord; to fight the Lord's battles, and without any stipend, as some think; or, as Kimchi, he offered gold and silver to the treasures of the house of the Lord: and with him two hundred thousand mighty men of valour; the number was 80,000 less than the former; the whole of Judah amounted to 780,000 men.
John Gill· Exposition of the Old Testament (1748-1763)Reformed
IT was a great thing for King Jehoshaphat to have such a pious lord-lieutenant, one who could command an army and, at the same time, obey the commands of God. Christian men ought greatly to value Christian servants, especially if such persons are employed in positions of trust. If we can have godly men to occupy our offices and transact our business, we should be very grateful and do our best to encourage and cheer them.
Charles Spurgeon· The Metropolitan Tabernacle Pulpit, Sermon No. 2227: “Wanted!—Volunteers” (lightly modernized text, CCEL edition), 1891
- 2 Chronicles 23:1
Then in the seventh year, Jehoiada strengthened himself and made a covenant with the commanders of hundreds—with Azariah son of Jeroham, Ishmael son of Jehohanan, Azariah son of Obed, Maaseiah son of Adaiah, and Elishaphat son of Zichri.
- 2 Chronicles 28:1
Ahaz was twenty years old when he became king, and he reigned in Jerusalem sixteen years. And unlike David his father, he did not do what was right in the eyes of the LORD.
Commentary on 2 Chronicles 28:12 voices
This prince, discarding the principles and example of his excellent father, early betrayed a strong bias to idolatry. He ruled with an arbitrary and absolute authority, and not as a theocratic sovereign: he not only forsook the temple of God, but embraced first the symbolic worship established in the sister kingdom, and afterwards the gross idolatry practised by the Canaanites.
Jamieson, Fausset & Brown· Commentary Critical and Explanatory on the Whole Bible, 1871Reformed
Ahaz was twenty years old when he began to reign,.... These verses are much the same with 2Ki 16:2, only in 2Ch 28:2 it is said, he made also molten images for Baalim; the several Baals or idols of the nations round about, as well as served Jeroboam's calves; see Jdg 2:11, and he is said in 2Ch 28:3, to burn incense in the valley of the son of Hinnom; to Molech, the god of the Ammonites, who was worshipped there. See Gill on 2Ki 16:2, 2Ki 16:3, 2Ki 16:4.

- Nehemiah 11:9
Joel son of Zichri was the officer over them, and Judah son of Hassenuah was over the Second District of the city.
Commentary on Nehemiah 11:92 voices
And Joel the son of Zichri was their overseer,.... Or chief governor of the city: and Judah the son of Senuah was second over the city; or the deputy governor of it; so Pitholaus is called an under governor in Jerusalem by Josephus (l). (l) Antiqu. l. 14. c. 6. sect. 1.
John Gill· Exposition of the Old Testament (1748-1763)Reformed
For it is as necessary for a people to have good order kept up among themselves as to be fortified against the attacks of their enemies from abroad, to have good magistrates as to have good soldiers.
