Nadab ,
Abihu, Eleazar ,
and Ithamar.
Thes
were the divisions of the sons
of Aaron. The sons of Aaron :
Nadab and
Abihu, Eleazar and Ithamar.
But Nadab and Abihu died before their father did
, and they
had no sons;
so
Eleazar and Ithamar served
as
priests
.
But Nadab and Abihu died before their father, and had no children:
therefore
Eleazar and Ithamar executed
the
priest's
office
.
With the help
of Eleazar’s
descendant
Zadok
and Ithamar’s
descendant
Ahimelech, David
divided them according to the
offices
of
their service.
David
with Zadok
of
the sons
of Eleazar,
and Ahimelech of
the
sons
of
Ithamar
, divided them according to their ordering
in
their
service.
Since
more
leaders
were found among
Eleazar’s
descendants
than those
of Ithamar ,
they
were divided accordingly.
There were sixteen heads of families
from
the
descendants
of
Eleazar
and eight
from
the descendants
of Ithamar.
There
were more
chief
men
found of
the
sons
of
Eleazar
than of the

of
Ithamar ;
and

were they
divided :

the
sons
of
Eleazar
there were sixteen ,
heads of fathers'
houses;
and of
the sons
of Ithamar ,
according
to
their
fathers'
houses,
eight
.
Thus they
were divided by lot,
for there were officers
of the sanctuary and officers
of God among
both Eleazar’s
and Ithamar’s
descendants
.
Thus were they
divided impartially
by drawing
lots;
for there were princes
of the sanctuary ,
and princes
of God ,
both of
the
sons
of
Eleazar,
and of
the
sons
of
Ithamar
.

in the presence of the king and of

of the priests and the Levites —
one family
being taken from
Eleazar, and then
one from
Ithamar.
