Pronunciation of Proper Names - In the middle of words, especially in words containing the Divine name Jah, the matter has already been settled for us, as it in most cases appears as iah , Ahaziah, Isaiah,
Shemaiah. Except for this consideration the rule would probably be, that where it follows a consonant the i is not only treated as a vowel but also accented Jeremi′ah; when it follows a vowel it is assimilated with that vowel as in the two examples given above, which also illustrate the way in which one or other vowel may give place, Isaiah (Isâ-ah),
Shemaiah (Shemî-ah), though some would render the former also Isî′ah

2 Samuel 8:2, Nahum 3:10, Joel 3:3) or sections of a conquered city (
Obadiah 1:11), The services of the sanctuary were sacred; hence the priestly functions were assigned to the orders by lot (

1 Chronicles 24:7, Luke 1:9),
Shemaiah the scribe writing out the lots in the presence of a committee consisting of the king, the high priest, and other functionaries (
1 Chronicles 24:6;
1 Chronicles 24:31)
Solomon - It cannot be maintained that the material and local conception of the Deity which it suggested made entirely for spiritual religion (
Isaiah 1:13 ,
Jeremiah 7:4 ,
Acts 7:48 ); it meant a concentration of power in the hands of the Jerusalem priesthood at the cost of the prophets, who had no influence during Solomon’s reign (Nathan in
1 Kings 4:6 is probably his brother), and the attitude of Nathan, Ahijah, and
Shemaiah makes it probable that they looked with suspicion on the new developments
Lots - A war was the war primarily not of Israel but of Jahweh, and that specially if it was for the punishment of wrong-doing; hence the members of a punitive expedition were chosen by lot (
Judges 20:9), hence also the spoil taken in war (
Judges 5:30), whether captives (
2 Samuel 8:2, Nahum 3:10, Joel 3:3) or sections of a conquered city (
Obadiah 1:11), The services of the sanctuary were sacred; hence the priestly functions were assigned to the orders by lot (
1 Chronicles 24:5;
1 Chronicles 24:7, Luke 1:9),
