Gershom, &c.--This repetition (see 1Ch 6:1) is made, as the historian here begins to trace the genealogy of the Levitical families who were not priests. The list is a long one, comprising the chiefs or heads of their several families until David's reign, who made a new and different classification of them by courses.
This site's exposition
the men David put in charge of the music
on 1 Chronicles 6:31-48
These are the men David put in charge of the music in the house of the LORD. Heman comes from Kohath's line through Samuel and Korah, Asaph from Gershom's at his right hand, and Ethan from Merari's on the left. Edersheim traces the office to the Levitical standing recorded here.
This site's exposition
the son of Tahath, the son of Assir
Here Assir is the son of Ebiasaph, and Ebiasaph the son of Korah. Verse 23 places a second Assir and an Elkanah between Korah and Tahath, and Exodus 6:24 names three sons of Korah as brothers. The records differ at this point.
