1. son —descendant. of Immer —one of the original "governors of the sanctuary and of the house of God," twenty-four in all, that is, sixteen of the sons of Eleazar and eight of the sons of Ithamar ( :- ). This Pashur is distinct from Pashur, son of Melchiah ( Jeremiah 21:1 ). The "captains" ( Luke 22:4 ) seem to have been over the twenty-four guards of the temple, and had only the right of apprehending any who were guilty of delinquency within it; but the Sanhedrim had the judicial power over such delinquents [GROTIUS] ( Jeremiah 26:8 ; Jeremiah 26:10 ; Jeremiah 26:16 ). return to ' Top of Page ' <a name="verse-2" class="com-number"
