Matthew Poole and continuators on Numbers 3:27

27 And of Kohath was the family of the Amramite, and the family of the Izharite, and the family of the Hebronite, and the family of the Uzzielite: these are the families of the Kohathite.

This Family had many priviledges above the others: Of that were Moses and Aaron, and all the Priests: They had the chief place about the Tabernacle, and the care of the most holy things, here below ver. 31. and in the Land of Canaan they had twenty three Citie[illegible: 1+ letters] ▪ which were almost as many as both their brethren received. See Ios. 21.
