COMMENTARY


Our study tonight is from 1chronicles chapter 9 vs 1-44


Which I will just be giving a brief summary.. We can read up for more understanding.

Our study since the beginning of the book of chronicles is based on descendants and genealogy 

Which we will continue today.

Today we will  be looking at Genealogy of the returned exiles and Saul's genealogy repeated.


Under the Genealogy of the returned exiles we have the people of Judah that were taken captive to Babylon because of their unfaithfulness.


We have the benjamites

The Levites

We should be familiar with these names in our previous chapters.

The priests and the gatekeepers


From verse 1-21

( Account were given on the names which we can read up)

I will quickly want us to look at 22-34

That talked about the gatekeepers


And what their functions was


Altogether those chosen to be gatekeepers  at the thresholds numbered 212.

And they were assigned to their position of trust by David and Samuel the seer


.

The gatekeepers were the ones in charge of guarding the gates of the House of the Lord. (The Yoruba calls them ' awon olusho')


Some were in charge of the articles used in the temple service and they had charge of the key for opening it each morning


Others were assigned to take care of the furnishings and all other articles of sanctuary.


These are just some of the functions of gatekeepers that were taken to exiles.


( just like our Ushers in church)


Now to genealogy of Saul

Verse 35-44.


Ner was the father of Kish

Kish the father of Saul

Saul the father of Jonathan, Malki- Shua, Abinadab and Esh- Baal

Jonathan father of Merib- baal


We all should be familiar with the name Jonathan.


Merib- Baal was the father of Micah

Micah father of Pithon, Melech, Ahaz

Ahaz father of Judah, Azel

Azel then had Six sons.


We have come to the end of the study of today

Tomorrow we should be able to look at Saul's life in details.

  READ FULL CHAPTER   HERE COORDINATOR   : AFOLABI JOSEPH OLAJDE David procures a superabundance of materials for the temple’s construction. He exhorts both Solomon and the nation’s leaders to follow Moses’ law and to build the temple with aplomb. II. Photo David sets aside a superabundance of materials for his son Solomon: “Much iron for nails for the doors of the gates and for clasps did David lay aside, and so much copper it could not be weighed, and cedar logs without number — for the Sidonians and the Tyrians brought many cedar logs to David.” (vv. 3-4) III. Important Verses vv. 1-2, 5: David said, “Here will be the House of the LORD and here the altar of burnt offerings for Israel.” David gave orders to assemble the aliens living in the land of Israel, and assigned them to be hewers, to quarry and dress stones for building the House of God… For David thought, “My son Solomon is an untried youth, and the House to be built for the LORD is to be made exceedingly great ...

  READ FULL CHAPTER  HERE COORDINATOR:  AFOLABI JOSEPH OLAJIDE COMMENTARY Saul’s life can be summed up in one word – ‘unfaithfulness’: ‘he was unfaithful to the Lord’. This is a warning: Don`t become like Saul who ‘did not keep the command of the Lord… and did not seek guidance from the Lord’ (10:13-14). What a violent end for a violent man! Saul made many mistakes over the course of his life and time as king, but the greatest seemed to surround his relationship with God.  He refused to listen to  God’s leading time and time again and instead turned to Satan himself for guidance. Turning to a medium was a slap in God's face. God had continually offered His advice and leading to Saul, but Saul turned his back on God and asked the enemy for help instead. It was clear that Saul did not agree with God and it led him to a violent, tragic, untimely death. Saul had continually turned off God’s voice in his head and when it came time for his final moments, he wasn’t eve...
