Heman

(faithful)

Son of Zerah. (1 Chronicles 2:6; 1 Kings 4:31)
Son of Joel and grandson of Samuel the prophet, a Kohathite. He is called "the singer," rather the musician, (1 Chronicles 6:33) and was the first of the three Levites to whom was committed the vocal and instrumental music of the temple service in the reign of David. (1 Chronicles 15:16-22) The 88th Psalm is ascribed to him. (B.C. 1014.)

ATS Bible Dictionary

Heman

1. A celebrated sage, of the tribe of Judah. The period of his life is unknown, 1 Kings 4:31.

2. A Kohathite Levite, to whom as a chief musicians of the temple of the eighty-eighty Psalm is inscribed, 1 Chronicles 6:33; 16:41,42.

Easton's Bible Dictionary

Faithful.

(1.) 1 Kings 4:31; 1 Chronicles 2:6, a son of Zerah, noted for his wisdom.

(2.) Grandson of Samuel (1 Chronicles 6:33; 15:17), to whom the 88th Psalm probably was inscribed. He was one of the "seers" named in 2 Chronicles 29:14, 30, and took a leading part in the administration of the sacred services.

International Standard Bible Encyclopedia

HEMAN

he'-man (heman, "faithful"): The name of two men in the Old Testament.

(1) A musician and seer, a Levite, son of Joel and grandson of the prophet Samuel; of the family of the Kohathites (1 Chronicles 6:33), appointed by David as one of the leaders of the temple-singing (1 Chronicles 15:17 2 Chronicles 5:12). He had 14 sons (and 3 daughters) who assisted their father in the chorus. Heman seems also to have been a man of spiritual power; is called "the king's seer in matters of God" (1 Chronicles 25:5 2 Chronicles 35:15).

(2) One of the noted wise men prior to, or about, the time of Solomon. He was one of the three sons of Mahol (1 Kings 4:31 (Hebrew 5:11)); also called a son of Zerah (1 Chronicles 2:6).

Psalm 88 is inscribed to Heman the Ezrahite, who is probably to be identified with the second son of Zerah.
