1 Chron 23:1–27:34 In chs. 23–27 David continues to prepare for Solomon’s rule by providing religious, military, and political leadership.
1 Chron 23:3 A legitimate census of the Levites, as in Num. 4:1–3 (see 1 Chron. 21:1–17 and notes on 1 Chronicles 21:1–17). The age of beginning service (thirty . . . and upward) was later lowered to 20 (23:24, 27). 38,000. The Hebrew word here for “thousand” may denote “groups” or “units” of unknown size.
1 Chron 23:6–23 David organizes the Levites according to their traditional clans: the Gershonites (vv. 7–11), the Kohathites (vv. 12–20), and the Merarites (vv. 21–23).
1 Chron 23:24–32 David appears as the successor to Moses (see Numbers 4) as he defines the Levites’ duties in relation to the temple.
