‏ 1 Chronicles 27:32

v. 32: David’s court included wise and skilled advisors. His uncle, a wise man and scribe, served as a counsellor and was well-versed in both politics and scripture (1 Chronicles 27:32 a). Another advisor was a tutor for David’s children. Ahithophel, known for his cunning, and Hushai, known for his honesty, were also among his counselors. David chose his advisors carefully, showing the importance of surrounding oneself with capable and trustworthy people. However, David valued God’s Word above all human advice, saying, Thy testimonies are my delight and my counsellors(Psalm 119:24 b).
