G. Campbell Morgan's Exposition on the Whole Bible - 1 Chronicles 6:1-81

In this whole chapter, consisting of eighty-one verses, the one subject is the priestly tribe. This in itself reveals the standard from which the history was written. Judah, the kingly tribe, is the only one which has more space devoted to it, occupying, as it does, one hundred and two verses. These, however, center in David. In the section now under consideration, the sons of Levi, around whom the divisions of the tribe for service were made, are named-Gershon, Kohath, and Merari. Then there... read more

Chuck Smith Bible Commentary - 1 Chronicles 6:1-81

Chapter 6Now in chapter six, we now get to the tribe of Levi from which was the priestly tribe.[And the three sons which made the major families within the tribe of] Levi were Gershon, Kohath, and Merari. And of Kohath was born Amram. And from Amram was born Aaron, and Moses, and Miriam, [their sister] ( 1 Chronicles 6:1-3 ).And so Moses and Aaron both came from the family of Kohath in the tribe of Levi. And then you follow the high priest line from Aaron, his son Eleazar and so forth. You... read more

Sutcliffe's Commentary on the Old and New Testaments - 1 Chronicles 6:1-81

1 Chronicles 6:4 . Eleazar begat Phinehas. A correct table of the Jewish highpriests would be very desirable to every lover of sacred literature. The best list I can collect is as follows: Aaron, Eleazar, Phinehas, Abishua, Bukki, Uzzi, Zerathiah, and Meraioth. Here Eleazar’s line suffered a chasm for the admission of Eli’s house, who filled the pontificate for seven generations; but God shortened their lives for their family’s sin. Some think that Abimelech whom Saul slew, with eighty four... read more
