Divisions
of Levites |
|
|
 |
1 Chronicles 24:1 |
|
Now the divisions of the descendants of Aaron
were these: the sons of Aaron were Nadab, Abihu, Eleazar and Ithamar. |
|
|
|
1 Chronicles 24:2 |
|
But Nadab and Abihu died before their father
and had no sons. So Eleazar and Ithamar served as priests. |
|
|
|
1 Chronicles 24:3 |
|
David, with Zadok of the sons of Eleazar and
Ahimelech of the sons of Ithamar, divided them according to their offices for
their ministry. |
|
|
|
1 Chronicles 24:4 |
|
Since more chief men were found from the descendants
of Eleazar than the descendants of Ithamar, they divided them thus: there were
sixteen heads of fathers' households of the descendants of Eleazar and eight of
the descendants of Ithamar, according to their fathers' households. |
|
|
|
1 Chronicles 24:5 |
|
Thus they were divided by lot, the one as the
other; for they were officers of the sanctuary and officers of God, both from
the descendants of Eleazar and the descendants of Ithamar. |
|
|
|
1 Chronicles 24:6 |
|
Shemaiah, the son of Nethanel the scribe, from
the Levites, recorded them in the presence of the king, the princes, Zadok the
priest, Ahimelech the son of Abiathar, and the heads of the fathers' households
of the priests and of the Levites; one father's household taken for Eleazar and
one taken for Ithamar. |
|
|

|
|
|

|
These were their offices for their ministry
when they came in to the house of the LORD according to the ordinance given to
them through Aaron their father, just as the LORD God of Israel had commanded
him. |
|
|
|
