1 Chronicles 5 - 9

More Genealogies

I must admit that unless I was doing a detailed study on lineages and genealogies, there is little in these five chapters that I find inspirational.  I do not doubt, for a minute, that there is a purpose for including this level of detail in the Bible, and I have read some Torah commentaries that discuss genealogies which included references to 1 Chronicles, but for me I have virtually nothing to blog about.


In chapter 9, verses 22-24, there is a description of the "gatekeepers," those who had specific duties in the Temple ranging from guarding the entrance, to blending spices, to baking the bread for the Sabbath.  It is important that we, as believers, all learn and do our job in the body in the service of the Lord.


May God bless you and bless the reading of His Word.
