SPECIAL NOTE:
[ I will again be working through the Scriptures from Genesis to Revelation. I will be adding links, resources, images, and the like, upgrading the former work-through which began with the 2013-10-12 posting which can be found, along with the full Genesis to Revelation postings, in the Archive Page. Postings will be at midnight Eastern Time, as I am able. However, no chapters will be skipped, even though a posting may be late. And all postings will be housed in the Archive Page. ]
Explanation: 1 Chronicles 6 gives the lineage of the tribe of Levi, with various details about the family history. Traditional Patriarchal Timeline. Judges. Judges Period Chronology. Kings of Judah and Israel #1. Kings of Judah and Israel #2].
The chapter begins with the sons of Levi (Gershon, Kohath, and Merari) and lists key figures down to the time of the Babylonian Captivity (1-15).
The next section gives further details about their descendants (17-30).
And those who ministered musically in the house of the LORD are particularly mentioned, along with other service which they performed (31-48).
Aaron and his sons were set aside for the task of making the various offerings such as the burnt offerings and the incense offerings (49-53).
The chapter concludes with a delineation of the dwelling places of the various families of the Levites (54-81).

RESOURCES
PLEASE NOTE: Use the resources on this and other sites thoughtfully, particularly the commentaries and encyclopedias. I have attempted to list conservative, scholarly resources. However, some providers use liberal or liberal-influenced commentaries such as the Cambridge Bible for Schools and Colleges (in Bible Hub). Such commentaries are undoubtedly included by the provider for the wealth of useful information and comments which they provide. By consulting several commentaries, it should be fairly easy to sort out the wheat from the chaff. If, however, you would like personal assistance, write to me at AD LIB ARTS EMAIL.
