What Does 1 Chronicles 24:20 Mean?
Having ordered the priests, the chronicler now lists the rest of the Levites who assisted in sacred service. He begins with the descendants of Amram -- Shubael, and his son Jehdeiah -- naming the family heads in their order.
The Levites who were not priests still had a vital share in the house of God. Not all are called to the same task, yet all are needed. God's household has many roles, and the helper is as truly serving as the one at the altar. Faithfulness in a supporting place is honored in heaven.
