1 Chronicles Chapter 24
So, these are Aaron's crew vibes. We got Nadab, Abihu, Eleazar, and Ithamar in the squad.
Now {these are} the divisions of the sons of Aaron. The sons of Aaron; Nadab, and Abihu, Eleazar, and Ithamar.
But for real, Nadab and Abihu bounced before their dad and didn't have any kids, so Eleazar and Ithamar picked up the priest duties.
But Nadab and Abihu died before their father, and had no children: therefore Eleazar and Ithamar executed the priest's office.
David set them up, with Zadok from Eleazar's crew and Ahimelech from Ithamar's squad, all about their assignments in the service.
And David distributed them, both Zadok of the sons of Eleazar, and Ahimelech of the sons of Ithamar, according to their offices in their service.
It turned out that Eleazar’s fam had more big shots than Ithamar’s. They divided it: 16 lit leaders from Eleazar and 8 from Ithamar.
And there were more chief men found of the sons of Eleazar than of the sons of Ithamar; and {thus} were they divided. Among the sons of Eleazar {there were} sixteen chief men of the house of {their} fathers, and eight among the sons of Ithamar according to the house of their fathers.
They rolled some dice to sort it out, with Eleazar and Ithamar holding down the sanctuary and God's spot.
Thus were they divided by lot, one sort with another; for the governors of the sanctuary, and governors {of the house} of God, were of the sons of Eleazar, and of the sons of Ithamar.
Shemaiah, the scribe from Nethaneel, one of the Levites, jotted it all down for the king, the princes, and the priests, picking one household for Eleazar and one for Ithamar.
And Shemaiah the son of Nethaneel the scribe, {one} of the Levites, wrote them before the king, and the princes, and Zadok the priest, and Ahimelech the son of Abiathar, and {before} the chief of the fathers of the priests and Levites: one principal household being taken for Eleazar, and {one} taken for Ithamar. {principal...: Heb. house of the father}
