# 1 Chronicles 16 General Notes

#### Structure and formatting

Chapters 15 and 16 tell how David organized the priests and Levites. (See: [[rc://en/tw/dict/bible/kt/priest]])

Some translations set poetry farther to the right than the rest of the text to show that it is poetry. The ULB does this with the poetic song in 16:8-36.

#### Special concepts in this chapter

##### David's psalm
As David organized the priests in their work in the tent, he wrote a psalm of praise to Yahweh.
