Order of David. Compare 1 Chron. 24.

The man of God. This phrase is the common designation in Kings for a prophet (1 Kings 12:22; 13:1, 26; etc.). In Chronicles the expression is found less frequently but is applied to Moses (1 Chron. 23:14), David (2 Chron. 8:14), and an unnamed prophet (2 Chron. 25:7, 9).
