JEDUTHUN

Member of the Levitical family of Merar who, along with Asaph and Heman, presided over the music in the sanctuary in David’s reign (1 Chr 25:1; 2 Chr 5:12; called “Ethan” in 1 Chr 6:44; 15:17). Jeduthun is mentioned in the titles of Psalms 39, 62, and 77. Some of his sons were set apart to prophesy with lyres, harps, and cymbals (1 Chr 25:1-3), apparently following the example of their father, who was called “the king’s seer” (2 Chr 35:15). In 1 Chronicles 16:38 and 42, he is listed as Obed-edom’s father.
