Who he was
Mahazioth was one of the fourteen sons of Heman, a prominent musician and seer in King David's court. He was appointed by David to serve in the Temple as a musician, along with his brothers. Mahazioth and his brothers were skilled in music and were responsible for providing musical accompaniment during religious services. They were divided into twenty-four groups, each responsible for their duties in rotation (1Ch.25.4, 30).
