2 notes on this verseThis site's exposition
The first lot fell to Jehoiarib
on 1 Chronicles 24:7-13
The lot gives “the eighth to Abijah”, and Luke 1:5 names Zechariah as a priest of the division of Abijah. Zechariah was serving his division's turn in the temple when Gabriel met him, so this roster dates the opening scene of the New Testament.

the thirteenth to Huppah
Huppah draws the thirteenth lot and Jeshebeab the fourteenth. Adam Clarke, on verse 6, says the drawing went by turns, one family of Eleazar and then one of Ithamar, until all were placed.
