Context of 1 Chronicles 24:29

27Merari's descendants by his son Jaaziah were: Beno, Shoham, Zaccur and Ibri. 28Mahli's son Eleazar had no sons. Kish's son was Jerahmeel. 30Mushi's sons were: Mahli, Eder and Jerimoth. That is the list of the Levites, with the leaders of each family. 31They also used lots to choose their different jobs, as their relatives, Aaron's descendants, had done. King David, Zadok, Ahimelech and the family leaders of the priests and the other Levites watched them. They chose work for the family leaders in the same way that they did for their younger brothers.

Commentaries on 1 Chronicles 24:29

• Tyndale Open Study Notes · v. 20-31The other family leaders might refer to tribe members who were not priests but had been documented (see 1 Chronicles 23:6–23), or it might refer to Levites not mentioned before. However, most families were already in the previous list. Therefore, this list seems to be a separate, additional list that complements the earlier register of Levites, possibly updating it at a later time.Read the comment
