Listen from:
Each one known by name to the Lord.
V.24-25 Three times in this chapter, singers and porters are mentioned. Singers, to praise the Lord. Porters to guard the doors. Notice in verse 25 porters keeping the ward at the threshold of the gates. Right at the very threshold these faithful men stood.
V.29 Notice where the singers lived. They wanted to be near Jerusalem.
V.36 Notice who is leading his brethren — Ezra, the faithful scribe.
V.43 What wonderful singing, and what praise. “God had made them rejoice with great joy.”
V.45 “According to the commandment of David,” they went back to the original time.
