Priestly Divisions Assigned
1#Ex 6:23; Nu 3:2Now the divisions of the sons of Aaron were these.
The sons of Aaron: Nadab, Abihu, Eleazar, and Ithamar. 2#Lev 10:2; Nu 3:4But Nadab and Abihu died before their father, and they had no sons. So Eleazar and Ithamar served as priests. 3#2Sa 8:17; 1Ch 24:31Then David, along with Zadok of the sons of Eleazar and Ahimelek of the sons of Ithamar, divided them to their offices by their service. 4Since the sons of Eleazar were found to have more chief men than the sons of Ithamar, they divided them into sixteen heads of the fathers’ houses for the sons of Eleazar, and eight for the sons of Ithamar, according to their fathers’ houses. 5#1Ch 24:31So they divided them by lots, the one as the other, for there were officers of the sanctuary and officers of God among both the sons of Eleazar and Ithamar.
6#1Ch 18:16Shemaiah the son of Nethanel, the Levite scribe, wrote them down in the presence of the king, the leaders, Zadok the priest, Ahimelek the son of Abiathar, and the heads of the fathers’ houses of the priests and the Levites, one father’s house taken for Eleazar and one for Ithamar.

the second to Jedaiah,
8#Ezr 2:39the third to Harim,
the fourth to Seorim,
9the fifth to Malkijah,

10#Lk 1:5; Ne 12:4the seventh to Hakkoz,
the eighth to Abijah,
11the ninth to Jeshua,
the tenth to Shekaniah,
12the eleventh to Eliashib,
