Benaiah
“son of the Lord” Hitchcock's 18692 mentions, all in 1 Chronicles
Who he was
Benaiah was one of the seven priests who “blew the trumpets before God’s ark” when David and all Israel brought it up to Jerusalem (1 Chronicles 15:24; 1 Chronicles 15:28). When the ark had been set in the tent that David pitched for it, he and Jahaziel were appointed to serve as “the priests with trumpets continually, before the ark of the covenant of God” (1 Chronicles 16:1; 1 Chronicles 16:6). He is a different man from Benaiah the Levite, who played a stringed instrument (1 Chronicles 15:20).
