1 Chronicles 6:29
The descendants of Merari:
BSB
ASV
The sons of Merari: Mahli, Libni his son, Shimei his son, Uzzah his son,
KJV
The sons of Merari; Mahli, Libni his son, Shimei his son, Uzza his son,
Gershom, &c.--This repetition (see 1Ch 6:1) is made, as the historian here begins to trace the genealogy of the Levitical families who were not priests. The list is a long one, comprising the chiefs or heads of their several families until David's reign, who made a new and different classification of them by courses.
Rare words are the text's own signal of a deliberate thread: the fewer the occurrences, the more the places it appears belong together.
