Old Testament
Amasai
A Levite musician and gatekeeper who served during the reigns of David and Hezekiah.
Amasai is identified as a Levite who served as a gatekeeper for the Ark of the Covenant during David's reign. Later, a Levite by the same name is mentioned among those who assisted King Hezekiah in the cleansing of the temple. These references likely point to two different individuals serving in the priestly tribe across different generations.
