Heman the king’s seer
1 Chronicles 25:5
25:5 Heman the king’s seer. Biblically, the terms “seer” and “prophet” are essentially synonymous when used as here (note I Samuel 9:9). Jeduthun was also called “the king’s seer” (II Chronicles 35:15), and so was Asaph (II Chronicles 29:30). Some of the divinely inspired messages which they were enabled to “see” as “seers,” and to prophesy” as “prophets” have been preserved by God for us in several of the Psalms (see note on I Chronicles 15:19).
