Berechiah

Father of Asaph the worship leader — a Levite who returned after exile

About

A Levite and the father of Asaph, one of King David's chief worship leaders appointed to minister before the ark of God. Berechiah is recorded in 1 Chronicles 6 and 15, his significance resting largely in his son's enduring legacy—Asaph led Israel's worship and is credited with Psalms 50 and 73–83.
