Commentary on the Whole Bible (1710)

The particular account of these establishments is of little use to us now; but, when Ezra published it, it was of great use to direct their church affairs after their return from captivity into the old channel again.

This site's exposition

these were the remaining descendants of Levi

on 1 Chronicles 24:20-31

A second census follows for “the remaining descendants of Levi”. Albert Barnes counts twenty-five family heads here against the twenty-four priestly courses, and the text leaves the difference unexplained. Verse 31 restates the method, since these houses also “cast lots in the presence of King David”.

This site's exposition

from the sons of Shelomoth

Shelomoth heads the Izharites, and Jahath heads the next generation under him. 1 Chronicles 23:18 names him Shelomith, first among the sons of Izhar. Matthew Henry says Ezra's publishing of these records set the temple's affairs back in their old channel.
