Jeduthun -
lauder; praising, a Levite of the family of Merari, and one of
the three masters of music appointed by David (1Chr. 16:41, 42;
25:1-6). He is called in 2Chr. 35:15 "the king's seer." His
descendants are mentioned as singers and players on instruments
(Neh. 11:17). He was probably the same as Ethan (1Chr. 15:17,
19). In the superscriptions to Ps. 39, 62, and 77, the words
"upon Jeduthun" probably denote a musical instrument; or they
may denote the style or tune invented or introduced by Jeduthun,
or that the psalm was to be sung by his choir.
Jegar-sahadutha -
pile of testimony, the Aramaic or Syriac name which Laban gave
to the pile of stones erected as a memorial of the covenant
between him and Jacob (Gen. 31:47), who, however, called it in
Hebrew by an equivalent name, Galeed (q.v.).
Jehaleleel -
praiser of God. (1.) A descendant of Judah (1Chr. 4:16).
(2.) A Levite of the family of Merari (2Chr. 29:12).
