It is one of the 24 priestly divisions established by King David for the service in the Temple, as recorded in 1 Chronicles 24:14. The name Bilgah is associated with the 15th division of priests.<p><span class="tophdg">Cultural and Historical Background: </span>In ancient Israel, the priesthood was divided into 24 courses or divisions, each serving in the Temple for one week at a time. This system was established by King David to organize the priestly duties and ensure that the worship and sacrifices in the Temple were conducted in an orderly manner. The division of Bilgah, like the others, would have been responsible for various aspects of Temple service, including offering sacrifices, maintaining the sacred space, and leading the people in worship.<div class="vheading2">NAS Exhaustive Concordance</div><span class="hdg">Word Origin</span><br>from <a href="/hebrew/1082.htm">balag</a><br><span class="hdg">Definition</span><br>"cheerfulness," two Isr.<br><span class="hdg">NASB Translation</span><br>Bilgah (3).<p><div align="center"><span class="smalltext"><iframe width="100%" height="85" scrolling=no src="/nasec.htm" frameborder=0 cellpadding=0></iframe></span></div><div class="vheading2">Brown-Driver-Briggs</div> <font class="hebrew2">בִּלְגָּה</font> <font size="+1" color="#552200"><b>proper name, masculine</b></font> (<em>cheerfulness</em>) — <p><font size="+1" color="#552200"><b>1</b></font> <font size="+1"><b>priest of 15th course</b></font> (David's time) <a href="/interlinear/1_chronicles/24-14.htm">1 Chronicles 24:14</a>. <p><font size="+1" color="#552200"><b>2</b></font> <font size="+1"><b>priest that went up with Zerubbabel</b></font> <a href="/interlinear/nehemiah/12-5.htm">Nehemiah 12:5</a>,18. <br><br><iframe width="100%" height="85" scrolling=no src="/bsoft2.htm" frameborder=0 cellpadding=0></iframe><div class="vheading2">Strong's Exhaustive Concordance</div>Bilgah <p>From <a href="/hebrew/1082.htm">balag</a>;
