This Obed entry refers to one of the sons of Shemaiah in 1 Chronicles 26:7, not to the father of Azariah or the mighty man in 1 Chronicles 11:47. He belongs to the household associated with temple service and gatekeeping. First appears in 1 Chr 26:7.1
AI summary: This Obed matters because his single cross reference places him within a family especially remembered for strength and service in sanctuary duties. The entry helps show that temple care was sustained through named households across generations. Taken together, the material presents this Obed as a family figure in the gatekeeping tradition.1
