Officers and judges From the Izrahites The term "Izrahites" refers to a specific clan or family lineage within the tribe of Levi. The Levites were set apart for religious duties, but this particular group, the Izrahites, had a distinct role. The Hebrew root of "Izrahites" is linked to the idea of shining or being prominent, suggesting that this family had a notable position within the community. Historically, the Levites were dispersed among the tribes of Israel to teach the law and maintain the spiritual health of the nation, and the Izrahites were no exception, serving in roles that extended beyond the temple. Chenaniah and his sons had the outside duties as officers and judges over Israel (29) Of the Izharites, Chenaniah and his sons.--As to the Izharites, Chenaniah, &c. Izhar was the second, as Hebron (1Chronicles 26:30) was the third of the Kohathite stocks (1Chronicles 23:12). The outward business is defined as that of "officers" (shoterim, scribes) and judges. Six thousand Levites were set apart for these duties (1Chronicles 23:4). As Nehemiah 11:16 mentions "the outward business of the house of God," the outward business here spoken of may have been in part connected with the Temple, and included such work as the collection of tithes and taxes. . . . Verses 29-32. - The chapter closes with some enumeration of those who were appointed to the outward business (הַחִיעונָה לַמְּלָאכָה) over Israel i.e. the secular or civic rather than temple business. Verse 29. - Though the Authorized Version of 1 Chronicles 15:22 would make it appear very unlikely that the Chenaniah, a "chief of the Levites," here spoken of was identical with the present Chenaniah, yet the other translation of that passage, and the view that some take of it as describing one who had the special ordering of the carrying of the ark, would leave it more likely. For the officers and judges, see 1 Chronicles 23:4; 2 Chronicles 19:5-11. The too generic term "officers" (Exodus 5:6-19: Numbers 11:16, etc.) may be advantageously superseded by the word "scribes." These scribes and judges, it appears, were taken from the families of Izhar and Hebron alone, without any Amramite or Uzzielite of the other Kohathites, and without any Gershonite or Merarite of the other Levites.Parallel Commentaries ...
