II. HEMAN, the Ezrahite. In the first book of Kings, we find Ethan, Eman, Chalcol, and Darda, the sons of Mahol, and eminent Musicians belonging to the Temple in Solomon’s time. And in the Chronicles, we find Zimri, Ethan, Eman, Calcol, and Dara, the sons of Zerah, and grandsons of Judah. I have some suspicions, that the Transcribers have confounded the descendants of Mahol, with those of Zerah, and that by mistake they have given Eman or Heman, the son of Mahol, the surname of Ezrahite, as if he were the son of Zerah.
