Be sure that the land is distributed by lot. What each group inherits will be according to the names for its ancestral tribe.Each inheritance is to be distributed by lot among the larger and smaller groups.”These were the Levites who were counted by their clans: through Gershon, the Gershonite clan; through Kohath, the Kohathite clan; through Merari, the Merarite clan.These also were Levite clans: the Libnite clan, the Hebronite clan, the Mahlite clan, the Mushite clan, the Korahite clan.( Kohath was the forefather of Amram;the name of Amram’s wife was Jochebed, a descendant of Levi, who was born to the Levites in Egypt. To Amram she bore Aaron, Moses and their sister Miriam.Aaron was the father of Nadab and Abihu, Eleazar and Ithamar.But Nadab and Abihu died when they made an offering before the Lord with unauthorized fire.)All the male Levites a month old or more numbered 23,000. They were not counted along with the other Israelites because they received no inheritance among them.These are the ones counted by Moses and Eleazar the priest when they counted the Israelites on the plains of Moab by the Jordan across from Jericho.Not one of them was among those counted by Moses and Aaron the priest when they counted the Israelites in the Desert of Sinai.For the Lord had told those Israelites they would surely die in the wilderness, and not one of them was left except Caleb son of Jephunneh and Joshua son of Nun.
