This Elkanah entry refers to one of the gatekeepers serving when the ark is brought to Jerusalem, not to the court official under Ahaz or the Benjamite supporter of David. He belongs to the ordered worship life emerging under David. First appears in 1 Chr 15:23.1
AI summary: This Elkanah matters because his single cross reference places him among the named servants who safeguard and order the ark procession.
