Contextual Overview

1 David now built several buildings for himself in the City of David. He also prepared a place for the Ark of God and set up a special tent for it. 2 Then he commanded, "No one except the Levites may carry the Ark of God. The Lord has chosen them to carry the Ark of the Lord and to serve him forever." 3 Then David summoned all Israel to Jerusalem to bring the Ark of the Lord to the place he had prepared for it. 4 This is the number of the descendants of Aaron (the priests) and the Levites who were called together: 5 From the clan of Kohath, 120, with Uriel as their leader. 6 From the clan of Merari, 220, with Asaiah as their leader. 7 From the clan of Gershon, 130, with Joel as their leader. 8 From the descendants of Elizaphan, 200, with Shemaiah as their leader. 9 From the descendants of Hebron, 80, with Eliel as their leader. 10 From the descendants of Uzziel, 112, with Amminadab as their leader.

Barnes' Notes on the Bible

The sons of Kohath - The order of the sons of Levi according to primogeniture is, Gershom, Kohath, Merari Genesis 46:11; Exodus 6:16. But the Kohathites, of whom came the priestly family of the Aaronites, had precedence in all respects. To them especially was committed the attendance upon the ark and the bearing of it. Of the six Levitical families mentioned 1 Chronicles 15:5-10 one only was descended from Gershom, one from Merari, and four (Uriel, Elizaphan, Hebron, and Uzziel) from Kohath.
