July 12, 2013 – 1 Chronicles 5:11 – 5:41

I think it is interesting that it is Aaron’s line that we get in such detail from Aaron to the exile.  It isn’t Moses descendants that are written down, but Aaron.  That is because he was the high priest and that was an important figure during this period, but Moses had children.  I guess it is interesting that we don’t hear much about his children.  Aaron’s sons inherit the priesthood and Joshua takes over for Moses, there is nothing about Moses’ children.

Verse 36 talks about Johanan and Azariah being the descendants and priest during the time Solomon built the Temple.  The names don’t sound familiar from all the stories about David and Solomon.
