This verse names Eliel, a chief from the clan of Hebron (a descendant of Kohath), as part of the organized group of Levites. While a simple list entry, commentators view it within the larger context of David correcting his previous, disastrous attempt to move the Ark. One scholar notes that David is no longer making excuses but is now diligently seeking to honor God 'in the proper way.' This specific naming of leaders shows a deliberate return to God's prescribed order.
