All these were descendants of Obed-edom;
Obed-edom is a significant figure in the Old Testament, known for housing the Ark of the Covenant for three months, during which time the Lord blessed his household (2 Samuel 6:10-12). His descendants, therefore, are often associated with divine favor and service to God. The mention of his lineage here emphasizes the continuity of God's blessings and the importance of family heritage in the service of the Lord.

they and their sons and brothers
This phrase highlights the communal and familial nature of service in the temple. In ancient Israel, family units often worked together, and the service of God was a family affair. This reflects the broader biblical theme of generational faithfulness and the importance of raising children in the knowledge and service of the Lord (Deuteronomy 6:6-7).

were capable men with strength to do the work—
The emphasis on capability and strength suggests that the tasks assigned to these men required physical and perhaps spiritual fortitude. In the context of temple service, this could involve guarding the temple, managing its operations, or other duties that required diligence and integrity. This mirrors the New Testament call for believers to be strong in the Lord and in His mighty power (Ephesians 6:10).

62 in all from Obed-edom.
The specific number of 62 descendants underscores the significant contribution of Obed-edom's family to the temple service. Numbers in the Bible often carry symbolic meaning, and while 62 does not have a widely recognized symbolic interpretation, the precision of the count reflects the order and organization within the Levitical duties. This meticulous record-keeping is consistent with the chronicler's intent to document the faithfulness and structure of Israel's worship practices.

What Does 1 Chronicles 26:8 Mean
All these were descendants of Obed-edom

Obed-edom first stepped onto the biblical stage when the ark of God rested in his home and the Lord “blessed his household and everything he owned” (2 Samuel 6:11;1 Chronicles 13:14).1 Chronicles 26:4-7 lists the eight sons born to him, each blessed “because God had blessed Obed-edom.” Verse 8 gathers up that list with the words “all these,” underscoring that every name just recorded traces back to one man whose reverence for the Lord shaped an entire family line.

• Genealogies in Scripture are never filler; they remind us that God’s promises are handed down through real people in real time (Genesis 17:7;Psalm 103:17-18).

• Obed-edom’s story assures us that when God blesses a household, the impact can echo for generations (Proverbs 20:7).

they and their sons and brothers

The verse moves from individual names to a network of relationships—sons standing alongside brothers, all serving together. Temple service was a family affair; Levites were assigned by clan (Numbers 3:5-9). Here, the chronicler highlights unity: this was not a loose collection of volunteers but a coordinated, committed family team.

• Ministry that spans generations mirrors God’s design for faith to be taught “to your children and your grandchildren” (Deuteronomy 4:9).

• The presence of both “sons and brothers” shows younger and older working side by side, illustratingTitus 2:1-8 long before Paul wrote it.

were capable men

The Berean Standard Bible calls them “capable men,” echoing the phrase Moses used for the leaders he appointed (Exodus 18:21). Capability here is more than muscle strength; it includes integrity, reliability, and skill. The same Hebrew word describes David’s mighty men (1 Chronicles 12:8), suggesting that temple gatekeepers needed courage comparable to soldiers.

• God expects those who guard His house to be trustworthy (1 Timothy 3:2).

• Ability plus character turns service into worship (Colossians 3:23-24).

with strength to do the work

Guarding the temple gates involved long hours, heavy doors, and constant vigilance (1 Chronicles 26:12, 27). Physical stamina was essential, but spiritual strength mattered even more—standing watch in God’s presence demanded holiness (Psalm 84:10).

• The phrase recalls Nehemiah’s builders who worked “with all their heart” (Nehemiah 4:6).

•Isaiah 40:31 reminds us that those who hope in the Lord renew their strength, a truth these gatekeepers embodied daily.

62 in all from Obed-edom

Sixty-two descendants fit for service is no small detail; it testifies to the fruitfulness of a man who welcomed the ark. What began with one faithful Levite multiplied into an entire security team for the temple. The count invites us to notice the measurable impact of obedience—God’s blessings are often countable (Genesis 22:17).

• The number also stresses completeness: every descendant who met the qualifications was enlisted; none were left on the sidelines (1 Corinthians 15:58).

summary

1 Chronicles 26:8 spotlights a family transformed by God’s blessing and devoted to His house. Obed-edom’s descendants—organized by kinship, proven in character, equipped with strength—demonstrate how one person’s faithful response to God can cascade through generations, producing capable servants who stand ready to guard and honor the Lord’s dwelling place.

(8)Able men.--Were men of power; in the original, a singular collective.

For strength.--Literally,In the strength, i.e., ability.

Were threescore and two. . .--A distinct sentence:There were sixty and two (belonging)to Obed-edom. Perhaps the wordkol, "every," has fallen out beforeish hayil (comp.1Chronicles 10:12, where the same phrase occurred). In that case render,All these were of the sons of Obed-edom; they and their sons and their brethren, every man of power in the strength for service. The "sons and brethren" of the porters may be compared with those of the musicians (1Chronicles 25:9;1Chronicles 25:29).

Verse 8. -Able men for strength for the service. The Hebrew gives this in the singular,אִישׁיחַיִל, etc. The apparent intention is todistribute equally to each and every one ofall of the sons of Obed-edom, the high character for strength given to them as grouped here together.
