Ethni

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

In the Hebrew Bible Ethni was an ancestor of Asaph, of the Gershonite branch of the Levites. David assigned him to the music ministry of the Lord's house (1 Chronicles 6:41).[1] In 1 Chronicles 6:21,[2] the same person is referred to as "Jeatherai" (KJV spells it "Jeaterai").[3]
