This Chapter Verse Commentaries:

1Ch_23:14 Now [concerning] Moses the man of God, his sons were named of the tribe of Levi.

Ver. 14. Now concerning Moses the man of God.] Who was so familiar with God, and his ambassador to the people. We must think and speak honourably of the saints departed.



His sons were named of the tribe of Levi.] Chief of the Levites, {1Ch_26:23} but below the sons of Aaron, the priests. And here A Lapide hath this good note, Mira fuit Moysis resignatio et humilitas, &c. Wonderful was the self-denial and humility of Moses in submitting to God’s appointment herein, that the principality should be transferred to Joshua, and that his sons should be reckoned not priests, but Levites only, though himself were "king in Jeshurun."
