1 Chronicles 24:2
King James Version
“But Nadab and Abihu died before their father, and had no children: therefore Eleazar and Ithamar executed the priest’s office.”
Context
1Now the divisions of the sons of Aaron. The sons of Aaron; Nadab, and Abihu, Eleazar, and Ithamar.
2But Nadab and Abihu died before their father, and had no children: therefore Eleazar and Ithamar executed the priest’s office.
3And David distributed them, both Zadok of the sons of Eleazar, and Ahimelech of the sons of Ithamar, according to their offices in their service.
4And there were more chief men found of the sons of Eleazar than of the sons of Ithamar; and were they divided. Among the sons of Eleazar sixteen chief men of the house of fathers, and eight among the sons of Ithamar according to the house of their fathers.
5Thus were they divided by lot, one sort with another; for the governors of the sanctuary, and governors of God, were of the sons of Eleazar, and of the sons of Ithamar.
