Exegetical and Hermeneutical Commentary of Exodus 6:24

And the sons of Korah; Assir, and Elkanah, and Abiasaph: these [are] the families of the Korhites.

24. Kora’s family. It is stated in Num 26:11 that the sons of Kora did not perish with their father (Num 16:32); and Koraites are mentioned in Num 26:58. In much later days the Koraites acted as gate-keepers in the Temple (1Ch 9:19; 1Ch 26:1-19), and also, probably (cf. 2Ch 20:19; and the titles of Psalms 42, 44-49, 84, 85, 87, 88), assisted in some way in the worship of the Temple. For the names, see 1Ch 6:22-23 (where, however, Elkanah is the son of Assir, and Ebiasaph [Abiasaph] the son of Elkanah), Exo 9:19 (Ebiasaph).

And the sons of Korah,…. The eldest son of Izhar, who, though he proved a bad man, yet many of his posterity were good men, and are often mentioned in general in the titles of some of the psalms of David: the immediate sons of Korah were

Assir, and Elkanah, and Abiasaph. Aben Ezra says, that Samuel the prophet was of the sons of Korah; perhaps what might lead him to it was, because his father’s name was Elkanah, the name of one of these sons of Korah, but cannot be this Elkanah:

these are the families of the Korhites; the heads of them, or from whom they descended.

(24) The sons of Korah did not partake in his sin, and therefore died not (Num. 26:11), but became the heads of important families.

Ver. 24. And the sons of Korah. ] There were of his sons, that died not, Num 16:11 departing, as it seems, from their father’s tents, as all were counselled. Num 16:24-26 Of them came Samuel the prophet, Heman the music master, and other the sons of Korah so oft mentioned in the titles of Psalms.
