What Does 1 Chronicles 24:16 Mean?

The nineteenth lot comes to Pethahiah and the twentieth to Jehezekel. Only a few courses remain to be drawn, the great rotation of priestly service now almost fully formed.

These are not idle records but the framework of a living worship. By such ordering, the house of God was never without a minister, and the people were never without those to intercede for them. Faithful structure is a gift, freeing every servant to do well the thing appointed.
