Nehemiah 12:24

Albert Barnes
Notes on the Whole Bible

Jeshua the son of Kadmiel - If the reading be sound, this Jeshua must have been the head of the Levitical family of Kadmiel in the time of Joiakim; but (compare Nehemiah 8:7; Nehemiah 9:4), some read “Jeshua, Bani, Kadmiel,” etc.

Ward over against ward - i. e., “alternately,” one part of the choir corresponding the other.

Matthew Henry
Concise Bible Commentary
It is a debt we owe to faithful ministers, to remember our guides, who have spoken to us the word of God. It is good to know what our godly predecessors were, that we may learn what we should be.
