|
|
2. Nadab and Abihu died before their father, leaving no sons; therefore only Eleazar and Ithamar served as priests.
|
2. But Nadab H5070 and Abihu H30 died H4191 before H6440 their father H1 , and had H1961 no H3808 children H1121 : therefore Eleazar H499 and Ithamar H385 executed the priest's office H3547 .
|
|
3. David, with Zadok, a descendant of Eleazar, and Ahimelech, a descendant of Ithamar, assigned the functions for the priestly service.

|
|
5. Their functions were assigned impartially by lot, for there were officers of the holy place, and officers of the divine presence, descended both from Eleazar and from Ithamar.
|
5. Thus were they divided H2505 by lot H1486 , one sort H428 with H5973 another H428 ; for H3588 the governors H8269 of the sanctuary H6944 , and governors H8269 of the house of God H430 , were H1961 of the sons H4480 H1121 of Eleazar H499 , and of the sons H1121 of Ithamar H385 .
