Jeiel, also known as Jehiah, was a Levite who lived during the reign of King David. He was appointed as one of the musicians to play the harp when the ark of the covenant was brought to Jerusalem. Jeiel was also among the Levites who blew trumpets before the ark during its journey. Additionally, he served as a gatekeeper for the ark, ensuring its safety and proper handling. Jeiel's responsibilities as a musician and gatekeeper highlight the importance of worship and reverence in the presence of the ark of the covenant.
