Notes

The list of priests from Aaron to Ahimaaz introduces the territorial list (1 Chronicles 6:54–81). The list continues to the time of David, when Ahimaaz served (2 Samuel 15:36; 17:17–29; 18:19–29).

This section highlights the importance of the priestly tribe of Levi due to its central position in the genealogical lists.
