This site's exposition

the sons of Aaron; Eleazar his son

on 1 Chronicles 6:50-53

A second, shorter list of Aaron's sons repeats the priestly line from Eleazar down to Ahimaaz, the priest of David's own reign, without carrying it forward to the captivity as the first list did. Clarke reads the doubling as evidence the Chronicler had more than one older list in hand and drew on each where it served the record he was compiling.
