| I Chronicles 6:1 | The *sons of Levi were, Gerson, Caath, and Merari. Genesis 46:11.; 1 Paralipomenon 23:6. | Levi. The genealogy of the Levites is given with more exactitude than any of the preceding. Caath formed two branches, 1. the priests, descended from Aaron; 2. all his other children, who were simply Levites. (Calmet) --- Hence they are placed after the priests. (Menochius) |
