Contextual Overview
1 The divisions of the descendants of Aharon were as follows: The sons of Aharon: Nadav, Avihu, El‘azar and Itamar. 2 But Nadav and Avihu died before their father and had no children; therefore El‘azar and Itamar functioned as the cohanim. 3 David, together with Tzadok from the descendants of El‘azar, and Achimelekh from the descendants of Itamar, arranged them in divisions for service. 4 There were more men who were chiefs found among the descendants of El‘azar than among the descendants of Itamar; therefore there were sixteen divisions of the descendants of El‘azar, headed by clan leaders, and eight divisions of the descendants of Itamar, according to their clans. 5 They were assigned [periods of service] by lot, the one group equally with the other, since both the descendants of El‘azar and the descendants of Itamar had officers of the sanctuary and officers of God. 6 Sh'ma‘yah the son of N'tan'el the secretary, one of the L'vi'im, recorded them in the presence of the king, the officers, Tzadok the cohen, Achimelekh the son of Evyatar, and the clan leaders of the cohanim and of the L'vi'im — with two clan divisions taken from El‘azar for each one from Itamar. 7 The first lot drawn was for Y'hoyariv, the second for Y'da‘yah, 8 the third for Harim, the fourth for S‘orim, 9 the fifth for Malkiyah, the sixth for Miyamin, 10 the seventh for Hakotz, the eighth for Aviyah,

But Nadab and Abihu died before their father,.... While he was living, see Leviticus 10:1

Clarke's Notes on the Bible
Verse 1 Chronicles 24:2. Nadab and Abihu died before their father — That is, during his lifetime.
Eleazar and Ithamar executed the priest's office. — These two served the office during the life of their father Aaron; after his death Eleazar succeeded in the high priesthood. And under Eli the high priest, the family of Ithamar re-entered into that office.
