Context of 1 Chronicles 24:29

27The sons of Merari: from Jaaziah: Beno, Shoham, Zakkur and Ibri. 28From Mahli: Eleazar, who had no sons. From Kish: the son of Kish: Jerahmeel. 30And the sons of Mushi: Mahli, Eder and Jerimoth. These were the Levites, according to their families. 31They also cast lots, just as their relatives the descendants of Aaron did, in the presence of King David and of Zadok, Ahimelek, and the heads of families of the priests and of the Levites. The families of the oldest brother were treated the same as those of the youngest.

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
