Verses 23-25

23-25. Elisheba, (Elisabeth,) which means, God is her oath, that is, She owns and worships God . The family connexions of Aaron and his wife Elisabeth are detailed with far more fulness than these of Moses, since the lineage of the high priests was a matter of the highest importance in Israel . The sons of Moses had no special prominence in the national history, and their names are hardly mentioned . It is recorded here that Aaron’s wife was the sister of Naashon, a well known prince of Judah .

It will be noticed that the priestly succession here stops at Phinehas, the grandson of Aaron, who, as a youth, entered Canaan, and was the last of the line that Moses could have seen. This incidental evidence of Mosaic authorship is worthy of attention.
