Chapter 24 The Divisions of Priests 1These were the divisions of the sons of Aaron:The sons of Aaron were Nadab, Abihu, Eleazar and Ithamar.2But Nadab and Abihu died before their father did, and they had no sons; so Eleazar and Ithamar served as the priests. 3With the help of Zadok a descendant of Eleazar and Ahimelech a descendant of Ithamar, David separated them into divisions for their appointed order of ministering. 4A larger number of leaders were found among Eleazar's descendants than among Ithamar's, and they were divided accordingly: sixteen heads of families from Eleazar's descendants and eight heads of families from Ithamar's descendants.5They divided them impartially by drawing lots, for there were officials of the sanctuary and officials of God among the descendants of both Eleazar and Ithamar.6The scribe Shemaiah son of Nethanel, a Levite, recorded their names in the presence of the king and of the officials: Zadok the priest, Ahimelech son of Abiathar and the heads of families of the priests and of the Levites—one family being taken from Eleazar and then one from Ithamar. 7The first lot fell to Jehoiarib, 8the third to Harim, 9the fifth to Malkijah, 10the seventh to Hakkoz, 11the ninth to Jeshua, 12the eleventh to Eliashib, 13the thirteenth to Huppah, 14the fifteenth to Bilgah, 15the seventeenth to Hezir, 16the nineteenth to Pethahiah, 17the twenty-first to Jakin, 18the twenty-third to Delaiah 19This was their appointed order of ministering when they entered the temple of the LORD, according to the regulations prescribed for them by their forefather Aaron, as the LORD, the God of Israel, had commanded him.
