Mahazioth is listed as the leader of the twenty-third division. The division of labor among the musicians reflects the organized and structured approach to worship in ancient Israel. The number twenty-three may not have specific symbolic meaning but shows the comprehensive nature of the musical service. Mahazioth's name, meaning "visions" or "prophecies," could suggest a role in conveying divine messages through music.<p><b>his sons, and his brothers—</b><br>This phrase highlights the familial aspect of temple service, where musical duties were often passed down through family lines. This practice ensured continuity and preserved the musical traditions within the Levite families. It also reflects the communal and familial nature of worship in Israel, where serving God was a family affair. The involvement of both sons and brothers suggests a broad inclusion of family members in the service, emphasizing unity and cooperation.<p><b>12 in all;</b><br>The number twelve is significant in biblical literature, often symbolizing completeness or divine order, as seen in the twelve tribes of Israel and the twelve apostles. In this context, the twelve members of Mahazioth's division may represent a complete unit for their specific role in temple worship. This number ensures that there is a full complement of musicians to fulfill their duties, maintaining the order and beauty of worship. The use of twelve could also be seen as a reflection of God's perfect design for worship and service.<div class="vheading2">Persons / Places / Events</div>1. <b><a href="/topical/d/david.htm">David</a></b><br>The King of Israel who organized the temple musicians.<br><br>2. <b><a href="/topical/a/asaph,_heman,_and_jeduthun.htm">Asaph, Heman, and Jeduthun</a></b><br>Leaders of the temple musicians, appointed by David to prophesy with lyres, harps, and cymbals.<br><br>3. <b><a href="/topical/t/the_temple.htm">The Temple</a></b><br>The central place of worship in Jerusalem where the musicians served.<br><br>4. <b><a href="/topical/t/the_sons_of_asaph,_heman,_and_jeduthun.htm">The Sons of Asaph, Heman, and Jeduthun</a></b><br>The musicians who were set apart for the ministry of music in the house of the Lord.<br><br>5. <b><a href="/topical/t/the_division_of_musicians.htm">The Division of Musicians</a></b><br>The organization of 24 divisions of musicians, each serving in the temple.<div class="vheading2">Teaching Points</div><b><a href="/topical/t/the_role_of_music_in_worship.htm">The Role of Music in Worship</a></b><br>Music is a vital part of worship, serving as a means to glorify God and edify the congregation.<br><br><b><a href="/topical/o/organization_and_order_in_worship.htm">Organization and Order in Worship</a></b><br>The structured division of musicians reflects the importance of order and planning in worship services.<br><br><b><a href="/topical/p/prophetic_ministry_through_music.htm">Prophetic Ministry through Music</a></b><br>Music can be a form of prophecy, conveying God’s truth and encouraging the faithful.<br><br><b><a href="/topical/g/generational_involvement_in_worship.htm">Generational Involvement in Worship</a></b><br>The involvement of the sons of Asaph, Heman, and Jeduthun highlights the importance of passing down the tradition of worship to future generations.<br><br><b><a href="/topical/d/diversity_of_gifts_in_worship.htm">Diversity of Gifts in Worship</a></b><br>The use of different instruments and voices shows the diversity of gifts that can be used to honor God.<div class="vheading2">Lists and Questions</div><a href="/top10/lessons_from_1_chronicles_25.htm">Top 10 Lessons from 1 Chronicles 25</a><span class="p"><br /><br /></span><a href="/q/do_findings_support_levite_service_in_1_chron.htm">Are there archaeological findings that support or contradict the large-scale Levite service outlined in 1 Chronicles 23:24-32?</a><span class="p"><br /><br /></span><a href="/q/why_does_ishmael's_genealogy_differ.htm">Why does Ishmael's genealogy (Genesis 25:12-18) differ from other references to his descendants?</a><span class="p"><br /><br /></span><a href="/q/does_peleg's_'division'_imply_a_global_event.htm">In 1 Chronicles 1:19, does the mention of 'division' in Peleg's time imply a global geological event that contradicts modern science?</a><span class="p"><br /><br /></span><a href="/q/what_is_'earth_divided'_in_peleg's_time.htm">What does 'Earth divided in Peleg's days' mean?</a><a name="commentary" id="commentary"></a><span class="p"><br /><br /></span><span class="versiontext"><a href="/commentaries/1_chronicles/25-30.htm">Parallel Commentaries ...</a></span><span class="p"><br /><br /><br /></span><a name="lexicon" id="lexicon"></a><div class="vheading">Hebrew</div><span class="word">the twenty-third</span><br /><span class="heb">לִשְׁלֹשָׁ֤ה</span> <span class="translit">(liš·lō·šāh)</span><br /><span class="parse">Preposition-l | Number -
