assembled the children of Aaron

on 1 Chronicles 15:4-10

Six Levitical houses are mustered by name and number: three hundred and eighty-two men in all, under Uriel, Asaiah, Joel, Shemaiah, Eliel and Amminadab. Kohath's line leads the list and supplies four of the six family heads, since the ark itself was a Kohathite charge under Numbers 4, while Gershom and Merari each supply one. The roster preserves the very families whose failure caused the breach in chapter 13, naming the men entrusted with the correction alongside the men who had first attempted the task.
