1 Chronicles 25:22

Study note

Setting — The chronicler records a sequential list of musical divisions, assigning the fifteenth group to Jeremoth and his extended family.

The words — לַ/חֲמִשָּׁ֤ה עָשָׂר (la./cha.mi.Shah 'a.Sar) = for the fifteenth; שְׁנֵים עָשָׂר (she.Neim 'a.Sar) = two and ten (twelve).

The thread — This structural pattern of assigning twelve members to named leaders repeats in 1 Chronicles 25:21 and 1 Chronicles 25:23.

Why it lands — It demands attention to the precise accounting of group sizes and the systematic allocation of duties within the worship organization.
