    1David Organizes the Priests The divisions of Aaron’s descendants were as follows:The sons of Aaron:Nadab, Abihu, Eleazar, and Ithamar.

    2Nadab and Abihu died before their father did; they had no sons. Eleazar and Ithamar served as priests.

    3David, Zadok(a descendant of Eleazar), and Ahimelech(a descendant of Ithamar) divided them into groups to carry out their assigned responsibilities.

    4The descendants of Eleazar had more leaders than the descendants of Ithamar, so they divided them up accordingly; the descendants of Eleazar had sixteen leaders, while the descendants of Ithamar had eight.

    5They divided them by lots, for there were officials of the holy place and officials designated by God among the descendants of both Eleazar and Ithamar.
