Jeshebeab is mentioned in 1 Chronicles as the head of the fourteenth division of priests during the time of King David. David organized the priests into twenty-four divisions, each responsible for serving in the temple for a specific period. Jeshebeab's division was the fourteenth in the order of service. This organization of the priesthood ensured that the temple services were carried out efficiently and that all the priestly families had an opportunity to serve. The mention of Jeshebeab in this context highlights the importance of the priestly duties and the structured nature of temple worship during David's reign.
Seat of his father, the head of the fourteenth division of priests (1 Chr. 24:13).
