1 Chronicles 24:2-4
1599 Geneva Bible
2 But Nadab and Abihu died [a]before their father, and had no children: therefore Eleazar and Ithamar executed the Priest’s office.
3 And David distributed them, even Zadok of the [b]sons of Eleazar, and Ahimelech of the sons of Ithamar according to their offices in their ministration.
4 And there were found more of the sons of Eleazar by the [c]number of men, than of the sons of Ithamar, and they divided them, to wit, among the sons of Eleazar, sixteen heads, according to the household of their fathers, and among the sons of Ithamar, according to the household of their fathers, eight.
