13:023:027 For by the last words of David the Levites were numbered from
twenty years old and above:
13:023:028 Because their office was to wait on the sons of Aaron for the
service of the house of the LORD, in the courts, and in the
chambers, and in the purifying of all holy things, and the
work of the service of the house of God;
13:023:029 Both for the shewbread, and for the fine flour for meat
offering, and for the unleavened cakes, and for that which is
baked in the pan, and for that which is fried, and for all
manner of measure and size;
13:023:030 And to stand every morning to thank and praise the LORD, and likewise at even:
13:023:031 And to offer all burnt sacrifices unto the LORD in the
sabbaths, in the new moons, and on the set feasts, by number,
according to the order commanded unto them, continually before
the LORD:
13:023:032 And that they should keep the charge of the tabernacle of the
congregation, and the charge of the holy place, and the charge
of the sons of Aaron their brethren, in the service of the
house of the LORD.
13:024:001 Now these are the divisions of the sons of Aaron. The sons of
Aaron; Nadab, and Abihu, Eleazar, and Ithamar.
13:024:002 But Nadab and Abihu died before their father, and had no
children: therefore Eleazar and Ithamar executed the priest's
office.
13:024:003 And David distributed them, both Zadok of the sons of Eleazar,
and Ahimelech of the sons of Ithamar, according to their
offices in their service.
13:024:004 And there were more chief men found of the sons of Eleazar than of the sons of Ithamar, and thus were they divided. Among the sons of Eleazar there were sixteen chief men of the house of their fathers, and eight among the sons of Ithamar according to the house of their fathers.
