1Ch 16:1 So they brought the ark of God, and set it in the midst of the tent that David had pitched for it: and they offered burnt sacrifices and peace offerings before God.
**Ver. l. And they offered burnt sacrifices and peace offerings** ] Those pointed them to Christ, freeing them from their sins, both from the crime and from the curse: these taught them thankfulness for Christ, and all benefits in and by him.

1Ch 16:2 And when David had made an end of offering the burnt offerings and the peace offerings, he blessed the people in the name of the LORD.
Ver. 2. **In the name of the Lord,** ] *i.e.,* From Jehovah, the fountain and bestower of all good. Or, By the name of the Lord; *i.e.,* by naming the Lord, the proper object of prayers and praises.

1Ch 16:3 And he dealt to every one of Israel, both man and woman, to every one a loaf of bread, and a good piece of flesh, and a flagon [of wine].
Ver. 3. **And he dealt to every one of Israel.** ] Clemency and liberality are kingly virtues. See [2 Samuel 6:19](../../../kjv/2-samuel/6/19) .
****
**A good piece of flesh.** ] Of roast beef, as some gather from the notation of the word here used.

1Ch 16:4 And he appointed [certain] of the Levites to minister before the ark of the LORD, and to record, and to thank and praise the LORD God of Israel:
Ver. 4. **And to record.** ] Or, To declare and publish.
****
**And to thank and praise.** ] God is good, and so is the object of praise. He also doeth good, and so is the object of thanks.

1Ch 16:5 Asaph the chief, and next to him Zechariah, Jeiel, and Shemiramoth, and Jehiel, and Mattithiah, and Eliab, and Benaiah, and Obededom: and Jeiel with psalteries and with harps; but Asaph made a sound with cymbals;
Ver. 5. **Asaph the chief.** ] Yet in other places Heman is set before him. [1 Chronicles 6:33](../../../kjv/1-chronicles/6/33) *;* 1Ch 6:39 *;* 1Ch 15:16-17

1Ch 16:6 Benaiah also and Jahaziel the priests with trumpets continually before the ark of the covenant of God.
Ver. 6. **Continually.** ] That is, Constantly at set hours.

1Ch 16:7 Then on that day David delivered first [this psalm] to thank the LORD into the hand of Asaph and his brethren.
Ver. 7. **David delivered.** ] David, "the sweet psalmist of Israel." 2Sa 23:1

1Ch 16:8 Give thanks unto the LORD, call upon his name, make known his deeds among the people.
Ver. 8. **Call upon his name.** ] This psalm was sung in times of any great joy, as may be gathered from [Isaiah 12:4](../../../kjv/isaiah/12/4) .

1Ch 16:9 Sing unto him, sing psalms unto him, talk ye of all his wondrous works.
Ver. 9-11], *See Trapp on "* Psa 105:1 *"* *See Trapp on "* Psa 105:2 *"* *See Trapp on "* Psa 105:3 *"* &c.

1Ch 16:23 Sing unto the LORD, all the earth; shew forth from day to day his salvation.
Ver. 23. **Sing unto the Lord.** ] See [Psalms 96:1](../../../kjv/psalms/96/1) , &c *See Trapp on "* Psa 96:1 *"* &c

1Ch 16:34 O give thanks unto the LORD; for [he is] good; for his mercy [endureth] for ever.
Ver. 34. **O give thanks to the Lord.** ] See on [Psalms 107:1](../../../kjv/psalms/107/1) .

1Ch 16:35 And say ye, Save us, O God of our salvation, and gather us together, and deliver us from the heathen, that we may give thanks to thy holy name, [and] glory in thy praise.
Ver. 35. **Save us, O God of our salvation.** ] Pitch upon fit attributes in prayer: this will both strengthen faith and excite affection.
****
**That we may give thanks.** ] Which we both pray that we may, and promise that we will do.

1Ch 16:37 So he left there before the ark of the covenant of the LORD Asaph and his brethren, to minister before the ark continually, as every day’s work required:
Ver. 37. As every day’s work required.] Or, To do every day what he did on one day: for we must continue thankful.

1Ch 16:38 And Obededom with their brethren, threescore and eight; Obededom also the son of Jeduthun and Hosah [to be] porters:
Ver. 38. **And Obededom.** ] That is, Obededom and Hosan.

1Ch 16:39 And Zadok the priest, and his brethren the priests, before the tabernacle of the LORD in the high place that [was] at Gibeon,
Ver. 39. **That was at Gibeon.** ] For hither was the tabernacle brought, after that brutish slaughter of the priests by Saul at Nob. 1Sa 22:11-19

1Ch 16:43 And all the people departed every man to his house: and David returned to bless his house.
Ver. 43. **And David returned to bless his house.** ] See on [2 Samuel 6:20](../../../kjv/2-samuel/6/20) .
