1 Chronicles 25:5
_ _ Heman the king’s seer — The title of “seer” or “prophet of David” is also given to Gad (1 Chronicles 21:9), and to Jeduthun (2 Chronicles 29:14, 2 Chronicles 29:15), in the words (Margin, “matters”) of God.
_ _ to lift up the horn — that is, to blow loudly in the worship of God; or perhaps it means nothing more than that he presided over the wind instruments, as Jeduthun over the harp. Heman had been appointed at first to serve at Gibeon (1 Chronicles 16:41). But his destination seems to have been changed at a subsequent period.
_ _ God gave to Heman fourteen sons and three daughters — The daughters are mentioned, solely because from their musical taste and talents they formed part of the choir (Psalms 68:25). |
1 Chronicles 25:5
The king's seer — He is called the king's seer, either because the king took special delight in him; or because he frequently attended the king in his palace, executing his sacred office there, while the rest were employed in the tabernacle. In the words — To sing Divine songs as were inspired by God to the prophets or holy men of God. The horn — To praise God with the sound of a trumpet or some other musical instrument made of horn, which being a martial kind of music, might be most grateful to David's martial spirit: tho' he was also skilled in other instruments of music which he used in the house of God. |
- the king's seer:

1 Samuel 9:9 (Beforetime in Israel, when a man went to enquire of God, thus he spake, Come, and let us go to the seer: for [he that is] now [called] a Prophet was beforetime called a Seer.)
|
- to lift up:
- This may denote that he presided over those who used wind instruments.
|
- God gave:
1 Chronicles 28:5 And of all my sons, (for the LORD hath given me many sons,) he hath chosen Solomon my son to sit upon the throne of the kingdom of the LORD over Israel.
Genesis 33:5 And he lifted up his eyes, and saw the women and the children; and said, Who [are] those with thee? And he said, The children which God hath graciously given thy servant.
Psalms 127:3 Lo, children [are] an heritage of the LORD: [and] the fruit of the womb [is his] reward.
