This passage continues the genealogical record of the Levites, emphasizing their role in the worship and service of God. The Levites were not given a territorial inheritance like the other tribes, as their inheritance was the Lord and their service to Him (<a href="/numbers/18-20.htm">Numbers 18:20-24</a>).<p><b>From the sons of Amram:</b><br>Amram was a significant figure as the father of Moses, Aaron, and Miriam (<a href="/exodus/6-20.htm">Exodus 6:20</a>). His lineage is crucial because Moses and Aaron played pivotal roles in leading the Israelites out of Egypt and establishing the priesthood. The mention of Amram here highlights the continuation of his line in the service of the temple.<p><b>Shubael;</b><br>Shubael, also known as Shebuel in some translations, was a descendant of Amram. His name means "captive of God," which may reflect a life dedicated to divine service. Shubael's role in the temple service is noted in <a href="/1_chronicles/23-16.htm">1 Chronicles 23:16</a>, where he is listed among those responsible for the treasuries of the house of God, indicating a position of trust and responsibility.<p><b>from the sons of Shubael: Jehdeiah.</b><br>Jehdeiah, whose name means "Jehovah is joyful," is noted as a descendant of Shubael. The mention of Jehdeiah signifies the continuation of the Levitical line and their ongoing service in the temple. This lineage underscores the faithfulness of God in maintaining the priestly line and the importance of family heritage in the religious life of Israel.
