Commentary on Joshua 21:6

Theological / Devotional

Children of Gershon. Gershon was the eldest son of Levi (Ex. 6:16; Num. 3:17), but the inheritance of the children of Kohath was assigned first, likely because the priests were descended from Kohath. The Gershonites received 13 cities; the Kohathites, more in number, received 23.
