What Does 1 Chronicles 6:61 Mean?
The Kohathites who were not of Aaron's priestly house received ten cities, assigned by lot from the half-tribe of Manasseh. These were the wider Kohathite families who served the tabernacle in other ways.
The same care that placed the priests now provided for the other Levites, with the lot again seeking God's choosing. Every branch of the tribe had its appointed dwelling. The Lord forgets none of His servants, settling each in the place He has chosen for them.
