1 Chronicles 25:30for the three and twentieth to Mahazioth, his sons and his brothers, twelve:
The setting
Jerusalem, ~1000 BC. The Chronicler records the 23rd division in David's temple worship system...
The emotion here: reverent precision recording God's order
The original word
shelōshîm (שְׁלֹשִׁים) — literally 'thirty', but here meaning 'twenty-third'
Why it matters
Mahazioth means 'visions' — his family may have specialized in prophetic worship songs
Read with care
