Peullethai appears in 1 Chronicles 26:5 as one of the sons of Obed-edom, blessed by God and assigned as gatekeepers for the temple. Obed-edom's family received special divine blessing after he had housed the ark of God, and his descendants continued in temple service as doorkeepers. Gatekeepers weren't merely ceremonial; they controlled access to holy space, maintained order during worship, and guarded sacred precincts. Peullethai inherited both this practical responsibility and the honor of his family's association with the ark, their role perpetuating the divine favor shown to Obed-edom.
