     * mighty men of valour.
       They were not only porters, or door keepers, in the ordinary
       sense of the word, but they were a military guard to the gate,
       as Dr. Delaney suggests that the word {sh(9483)rim} should be
       rendered here:  and perhaps in this sense alone are we to
       understand their office, which appears to have been of
       considerable dignity, and conferred only on men of the first
       rank.  They were appointed to attend the temple, to guard all
       the avenues to it, to open and shut all the outer gates, and
       attend at them, not only for state but for service.  They were
       also required to direct and instruct those who were going to
       worship in the courts of the sanctuary in the conduct they
       were to observe, to encourage those who were timid, to send
       back the strangers and unclean, and to guard against thieves
       and others who were enemies to the house of God.
