The Tent Praise Band

1 Chronicles 5-9

When David needed to find musicians to minister before the Lord when he brought the tabernacle to Jerusalem, he selected Heman as the leader with Asaph and Ethan to help out... one from each of the Levitical clans. Even though Heman was the leader, Asaph appears to have been more talented. Psalm 88 is attributed to Heman, but Asaph's work is found in Psalm 50 as well as Psalms 73-83. He also appears to have a much larger presence in scripture. Ethan almost disappears or is renamed Jeduthan. (I never can tell whether those kind of things are new people or just different names for the same person.
