Context of 1 Chronicles 15:11

9from the sons of Hebron: Eliel the leader with 80 of his kinsmen; 10from the sons of Uzziel: Amminadab the leader and 112 of his kinsmen. David summoned Zadok and Abiathar the kohanim, along with the Levites, Uriel, Asaiah, Joel, Shemaiah, Eliel and Amminadab. 12He told them, “You are the heads of the Levitical families. Sanctify yourselves, you and your kinsmen, so that you may bring up the Ark of Adonai, the God of Israel, to the place that I have prepared for it. 13Because you were not there the first time, Adonai our God burst out upon us, for we did not seek Him regarding the prescribed way.”
