1 Chronicles 24:1-3

International Children’s Bible

The Groups of the Priests

24 These were the groups of Aaron’s sons:

Aaron’s sons were Nadab, Abihu, Eleazar and Ithamar. ² But Nadab and Abihu died before their father did. And they had no sons. So Eleazar and Ithamar served as the priests. ³ David separated the family groups of Eleazar and Ithamar into two different groups. Each group had certain duties it had been given. Zadok and Ahimelech helped David. Zadok was a descendant of Eleazar. And Ahimelech was a descendant of Ithamar.
