- Numbers 7:48
On the seventh day Elishama son of Ammihud, the leader of the Ephraimites, drew near.
Commentary on Numbers 7:481 voice
On the seventh day - Both Jewish and Christian writers have been surprised that this work of offering went forward on the seventh day, which they suppose to have been a Sabbath, as well as on the other days. But 1. There is no absolute proof that this seventh day of offering was a Sabbath. 2. Were it even so, could the people be better employed than in thus consecrating themselves and their services to the Lord?
Adam Clarke· Commentary on the Bible, 1832Evangelical

Commentary on 1 Chronicles 3:61 voice

Commentary on 2 Chronicles 17:81 voice
And with them he sent Levites,....

Commentary on Jeremiah 41:12 voices
The seventh month - Gedaliahs government lasted less than two months. Even - Rather, and. Ishmael was descended probably from Elishama the son of David 2Sa 5:16. Ten grandees each with his retinue would have aroused suspicion, but the smallness of Ishmaels following put Gedaliah completely off his guard.
