Contextual Overview
1 David became an old man, so he made his son Solomon the new king of Israel. 2 David gathered all the leaders of Israel and also the priests and Levites. 3 David counted the Levites who were 30 years old and older. All together there were 38,000 Levites. 4 David said, "24,000 will supervise the work of building the Lord 's Temple. 6000 will be court officers and judges. 5 4000 will be gatekeepers, and 4000 will be musicians. I made special musical instruments for them. They will use them to praise the Lord ." 6 David separated the Levites into three groups. They were the tribes of Levi's three sons, Gershon, Kohath, and Merari. 7 From the tribe of Gershon there were Ladan and Shimei. 8 Ladan had three sons. His oldest son was Jehiel. His other sons were Zethan and Joel. 9 Shimei's sons were Shelomoth, Haziel, and Haran. These three sons were leaders in Ladan's families. 10 Shimei had four sons. They were Jahath, Ziza, Jeush, and Beriah.
