Commentaries on 1 Chronicles 6:50
- Adam Clarke Bible Commentary · v. 50These are the sons of Aaron - We have already had a list of these, (see 1 Chronicles 6:3-16;); this is a second, but less extensive, and is a proof that the writer of this book had several lists before him, from which he borrowed as he judged proper.Read the comment
- Barnes’ Notes on the Bible · v. 50The sons of Aaron - This list, a mere repetition of that in 1 Chronicles 6:3-8, came, probably, from a different source - a source belonging to the time of David, with whom Ahimaaz (the last name on the list) was contemporary. The other list 1 Chronicles 6:4-15 came, no doubt, from a document belonging to the time of the captivity (see 1 Chronicles 6:15).Read the comment
- Tyndale Open Study Notes · v. 50-53The list of priests from Aaron to Ahimaaz introduces the territorial list (1 Chronicles 6:54–81). The list continues to the time of David, when Ahimaaz served (2 Samuel 15:36; 17:17–29; 18:19–29).Read the comment
