6:1-81 By its substantial scope and placement in the center of the genealogical lists, this section gives special significance to the priestly tribe of Levi. 6:1-48 This section provides the genealogies of the three most significant groups of the tribe of Levi: the high priests (6:1-15), the three clans of Levites (6:16-30), and the singers (6:31-47). Each genealogy begins with an introduction, followed by the list of names. 6:1 The three sons of Levi are introduced, but their actual genealogies are postponed to follow the list of high priests.
