On this verse

Draft selections — awaiting the founder’s edit.

All these here named were not high priests; for, in the time of the judges, that dignity was, upon some occasion or other, brought into the family of Ithamar, of which Eli was; but in Zadok it returned again to the right line. Of Azariah it is here said (

Matthew Henry· Commentary on the Whole Bible, 1710puritan

), who was the son of Ahimaaz, and that he was the priest who first officiated in Solomon's temple. Some other of the families of the Levites are here accounted for.

Matthew Henry· Commentary on the Whole Bible, 1710puritan

Aaron, and Moses, and Miriam, we have known much more of than their names, and cannot pass them over here without remembering that this was that Moses and Aaron whom God honoured in making them instruments of Israel's deliverance and settlement and figures of him that was to come, Moses as a prophet and Aaron as a priest.
