Lets take a look at "incense"    and we need a pattern for this...we need a parent...

Abraham.... Nah! His third wife...

Keturah = "incense"

So lets see who her children are  

Gen 25:2     And she bare him Zimran, and Jokshan, and Medan, and Midian, and Ishbak, and Shuah.

1Ch 1:32     Now the sons of Keturah, Abraham's concubine: she bare Zimran, and Jokshan, and Medan, and Midian, and Ishbak, and Shuah. And the sons of Jokshan; Sheba, and Dedan.


Okay, so what are we going to burn on the altar...

Exd 30:7     And Aaron shall burn thereon sweet incense every morning: when he dresseth the lamps, he shall burn incense upon it.

Exd 30:8     And when Aaron lighteth the lamps at even, he shall burn incense upon it, a perpetual incense before the LORD throughout your generations.

Exd 30:9     Ye shall offer no strange incense thereon, nor burnt sacrifice, nor meat offering; neither shall ye pour drink offering thereon.

First child into the flame:   (That just don't sound right!  ) but lets go with it!  

Zimran = "musician"

Psa 4:1     [[To the chief Musician  on Neginoth, A Psalm of David.]] Hear me when I call, O God of my righteousness: thou hast enlarged me [when I was] in distress; have mercy upon me, and hear my prayer.

Psa 8:1     [[To the chief Musician  upon Gittith, A Psalm of David.]] O LORD our Lord, how excellent [is] thy name in all the earth! who hast set thy glory above the heavens.

Psa 9:1     [[To the chief Musician  upon Muthlabben, A Psalm of David.]] I will praise [thee], O LORD, with my whole heart; I will shew forth all thy marvellous works.

Psa 11:1     [[To the chief Musician, [A Psalm] of David.]] In the LORD put I my trust: how say ye to my soul, Flee [as] a bird to your mountain?

Psa 12:1     [[To the chief Musician  upon Sheminith, A Psalm of David.]] Help, LORD; for the godly man ceaseth; for the faithful fail from among the children of men.

Psa 13:1     [[To the chief Musician, A Psalm of David.]] How long wilt thou forget me, O LORD? for ever? how long wilt thou hide thy face from me?
