Commentary on Nehemiah 11:36

Theological / Devotional

Divisions. Verse 36 should read, “Divisions of the Levites in Judah were joined to Benjamin” (RSV). Apparently certain divisions of Levites, who according to former arrangements had been located in Judah, were now transferred to Benjamin. The census under Nehemiah may have revealed that a disproportionately great number of Levites were living in Judah.
