As mentioned in previous posts, I am working my way through the Old Testament chronologically and am in I Chronicles. So, following chapter 26 on the organization of the Temple gatekeepers are Psalms by the Sons of Korah. Korah is one of two families assigned to the gatekeeper responsibilities. Below is a closer look at two of these Sons of Korah "gatekeeper: Psalms 42 and 43.

I'm trying to read through the Old Testament chronologically and I am in the book of I Chronicles. I had, what I consider, a substantial insight yesterday about David and his obsession with God's Temple; but ran out of time before I could explore it. It's been on my mind and I want to try and capture my thoughts, as they can be quite fleeting.

Psalms of the Sons of Korah (Gatekeepers) 15 and 24 (why David wants the Temple)

I am attempting to read through the Bible chronologically and am in the Old Testament in I Chronicles. David has collected the materials and local for Solomon to build the Temple of God and now he is organizing the Temple workers, the Levites. He breaks those into four groups, the priests, the musicians, the gatekeepers, and the officials.

I have already written posts on how the Levites were organized, and specifically about the priest, musicians, and gatekeepers. The NIV Chronological Bible now includes several Psalms that are either noted as by the Sons of Korah (one of two "gatekeeper" families) or about requirements for entry into the Temple.
