1 Chronicles 6:16. &c. The sons of Levi This pedigree of the posterity of Levi is given again, 1 Chronicles 6:43. It appears most probable, that in this catalogue the name of the son of Gershom was omitted, and לבני Libni, inserted, from בנו beno, his son, since the name of Gershom's son in the Syriac and Arabic, 1 Chronicles 6:20, is said to be Nahath instead of Jahath, as we find it in the second catalogue. See Pilkington, p. 29.
