David's several officers The third commander This phrase introduces us to the structure of the military organization under King David. The use of "third" indicates a systematic and orderly arrangement, reflecting the importance of organization in leadership. In Hebrew, the word for "third" is "שְׁלִישִׁי" (shelishi), which signifies not only sequence but also completeness and divine order, as the number three often symbolizes in biblical numerology. for the third month was Benaiah son of Jehoiada the priest the chief and there were 24,000 men in his division Benaiah.--See 1Chronicles 11:22. The son of Jehoiada, a chief priest.--Rather, son of Jehoiada the priest, as head, viz., of the third army corps. The term "chief," or "head," belongs to Benaiah, not to his father. But perhaps it is an erroneous gloss on Jehoiada. (Comp. 2Chronicles 23:8.) Both LXX. and Vulg. make Benaiah the priest. Verse 5. - Benaiah (1 Chronicles 11:22-25; 2 Samuel 23:20-23). To this name Keil thinks the word chief (רלֺאשׁ), in the succeeding expression, chief priest, belongs. Thus Jehoiada would be named here only priest. Yet see 1 Chronicles 12:27, where Jehoiada is called לְאַהֲרֹן חַגָּגִיד; and 2 Kings 25:18; where כֹּהֵן הָרלֺאשׁ stands for our הכֹּהֵן רלֺאשׁ, as applied to Seraiah. Benaiah was manifestly a Aaronite.Parallel Commentaries ...
