Usage: Talmon is used as a proper name in the Hebrew Bible, referring to a Levite who was a gatekeeper during the time of King David and later during the return from the Babylonian exile. Context: Talmon is identified as one of the gatekeepers in the temple service. He is mentioned in several passages in the Old Testament, primarily in the context of the temple's administration and the return of the exiles to Jerusalem. In 1 Chronicles 9:17, Talmon is listed among the gatekeepers who served in the house of the LORD. His role was significant in maintaining the order and sanctity of the temple, a critical aspect of worship in ancient Israel. During the return from Babylonian exile, Talmon's descendants are noted for their continued service in the temple. In Ezra 2:42 and Nehemiah 7:45, the sons of Talmon are listed among the gatekeepers who returned with Zerubbabel. This highlights the continuity of Levitical duties and the importance of family lineage in temple service.

This position required trustworthiness and dedication, reflecting the high regard in which Talmon and his descendants were held.
