From the priests
on 1 Chronicles 9:10-16
Jedaiah, Jehoiarib, and Jachin are three of the twenty-four priestly courses set out in 1 Chronicles 24: Jehoiarib first, Jedaiah second, Jachin twenty-first. The returned priesthood thus takes up an order older than the exile. The Levites named through verse 16 trace back to Merari and to Asaph.
