The sons of Aaron were Nadab, Abihu, Eleazar, and Ithamar. / But Nadab and Abihu died before their father did, and they had no sons; so Eleazar and Ithamar served as priests. / With the help of Eleazar’s descendant Zadok and Ithamar’s descendant Ahimelech, David divided them according to the offices of their service. 1 Chronicles 9:14-16 From the Levites: Shemaiah son of Hasshub, the son of Azrikam, the son of Hashabiah, a descendant of Merari; / Bakbakkar, Heresh, Galal, and Mattaniah son of Mica, the son of Zichri, the son of Asaph; / Obadiah son of Shemaiah, the son of Galal, the son of Jeduthun; and Berechiah son of Asa, the son of Elkanah, who lived in the villages of the Netophathites.

Hebrews 7:11-14 Now if perfection could have been attained through the Levitical priesthood (for on this basis the people received the law), why was there still need for another priest to appear—one in the order of Melchizedek and not in the order of Aaron? / For when the priesthood is changed, the law must be changed as well. / He of whom these things are said belonged to a different tribe, from which no one has ever served at the altar. ... Hebrews 5:1-4 Every high priest is appointed from among men to represent them in matters relating to God, to offer gifts and sacrifices for sins. / He is able to deal gently with those who are ignorant and misguided, since he himself is subject to weakness. / That is why he is obligated to offer sacrifices for his own sins, as well as for the sins of the people. ... Hebrews 7:27-28 Unlike the other high priests, He does not need to offer daily sacrifices, first for His own sins and then for the sins of the people; He sacrificed for sin once for all when He offered up Himself. / For the law appoints as high priests men who are weak; but the oath, which came after the law, appointed the Son, who has been made perfect forever.

Hebrews 9:6-10 When everything had been prepared in this way, the priests entered regularly into the first room to perform their sacred duties. / But only the high priest entered the second room, and then only once a year, and never without blood, which he offered for himself and for the sins the people had committed in ignorance. / By this arrangement the Holy Spirit was showing that the way into the Most Holy Place had not yet been disclosed as long as the first tabernacle was still standing. ... Hebrews 10:11-14 Day after day every priest stands to minister and to offer again and again the same sacrifices, which can never take away sins. / But when this Priest had offered for all time one sacrifice for sins, He sat down at the right hand of God. / Since that time, He waits for His enemies to be made a footstool for His feet, ...

The cities of the priests and Levites. Abishua was the father of Bukki Abishua is a name that appears in the genealogies of the Levites, specifically in the line of Eleazar, the son of Aaron. This lineage is significant as it traces the priestly line, which was responsible for the religious leadership and temple duties in Israel. The name Abishua means "my father is salvation," which reflects the theological emphasis on God as the source of deliverance and salvation. This genealogical record underscores the continuity of the priestly line, which was crucial for maintaining the religious and cultural identity of Israel. The mention of Abishua connects to the broader narrative of the Israelites' journey and their covenant relationship with God. Bukki was the father of Uzzi Persons / Places / Events 1. AbishuaA descendant of Aaron, the high priest, and part of the Levitical priestly line. His name means "my father is salvation." 2. Bukki The son of Abishua, continuing the priestly lineage. His name means "wasting" or "emptying." 3. Uzzi The son of Bukki, furthering the line of priests. His name means "my strength." Teaching Points The Importance of Lineage in God's PlanThe genealogies in the Bible, such as the one in 1 Chronicles 6, highlight the continuity of God's plan through generations. Understanding our spiritual heritage can inspire us to live faithfully. Faithfulness in Service The priestly line, including Abishua, Bukki, and Uzzi, reminds us of the importance of faithfulness in our service to God. Each generation is called to uphold and pass on the faith. God's Strength in Our Weakness The names in this passage, particularly Uzzi ("my strength"), remind us that God is our strength. In our weaknesses, we can rely on His power to sustain us. The Role of Priests as Mediators The priestly lineage points to the role of priests as mediators between God and His people, foreshadowing the ultimate mediation of Christ.Verses 5-7. - Of the five succeeding names, Bukki, Uzzi, Zerahiah, Meraioth, Amariah, it may be said that they reappear in the list of Ezra 7, but that little or nothing else is known of them. Lightfoot ('Temple Service,' 4. § 1) supposes that the change of priesthood family to Ithamar took place after Meraioth. But it is just as probable that the gap between Abishua and Eli, or possibly even between Phinehas and Eli, was filled by holders of the high priest office unknown by name to us.
