CHAPTER STUDY WORKSPACE

1 Chronicles 24

David, Zadok, and Ahimelech divide Aaron’s descendants into twenty-four priestly courses because some family branches are larger than others. Lots determine the order of service so that assignments are distributed without favoritism. The latter part of the chapter records additional Levitical family heads. The result is an organized rotation for temple ministry.
