1 Chronicles 6:43 Meaning and Explanation

Asaph's line reaches its source through Jahath and Gershom to Levi himself. Where Heman descended through Kohath, Asaph descended through Gershom -- both branches of the one tribe set apart for God.

Two great singers, two branches of Levi, one shared calling to praise. The Chronicler shows that the worship of the temple drew from the whole tribe, not one family alone. So the praise of God's people is rich because it gathers many streams into one song.
