The first lot came forth, to wit, out of the vessel, in which all the lots were promiscuously put together, and out of which they were severally taken.

Ver. 7-18. Now the first lot came forth to Jehoiarib,…. And the other twenty three to the following persons in order:
Jedaiah, Harim, Seorim, Malchijah, Mijamin, Hakkoz, Abijah, Jeshua, Shecaniah, Eliashib, Jakim, Huppah, Jeshebeab, Bilgah, Immer, Hezir, Aphses, Pethahiah, Jehezekel, Jachin, Gamul, Delaiah, and Maaziah; of all which courses we know little more than their names, though they continued in some form or other both under the first and second temple, to the destruction of it; the Jews say only four of these courses returned from the Babylonish captivity, which were those of Jedaiah, Harim, Pashur, and Immer; though Pashur is not among these here; yet they say each of these four had six lots, and that the names and the order of the other courses were retained and continued under them, and supplied by them: hence we read of Mattithiah, from whom sprung the Maccabees, as of the course of Jehoiarib,
“In those days arose Mattathias the son of John, the son of Simeon, a priest of the sons of Joarib, from Jerusalem, and dwelt in Modin.” (1 Maccabees 2:1)
which was the first course, and the most honourable; wherefore Josephus p, who was of it, valued himself upon it, that he was not only of the priestly order, but of the first class or course of the twenty four; and we also read of the course of Abijah, the eighth course, of which was Zechariah the father of John the Baptist, Lu 1:5 of these courses, [See comments on Lu 1:5].

Jehoiarib. The twenty-four courses took, and kept, the names of these first heads (verses: 1Ch 24:7-18). Each officiated a week (Sabbath to Sabbath), and Zacharias belonged to the eighth (Luk 1:5). Compare Neh 12. Solomon appointed the same courses, which were continued by Hezekiah and Josiah. Only four returned from the Captivity (Ezr 2:36-39. Neh 7:39-42; Neh 12:1-21). Luk 1:5 shows that they must have been made complete.

THE ASSIGNMENT OF THE SONS OF AARON
“Now the first lot came forth to Jehoiarib, the second to Jedaiah, the third to Harim, the fourth to Seorim, the fifth to Malchijah, the sixth to Mijamin, the seventh to Hakkoz, the eighth to Abijah, the ninth to Jeshua, the tenth to Shecaniah, the eleventh to Eiashib, the twelfth to Jakim, the thirteenth to Huppah, the fourteenth to Jeshebeab, the fifteenth to Bilgah, the sixteenth to Immer, the seventeenth to Hezir, the eighteenth to Hapizzer, the nineteenth to Pethahiah, the twentieth to Jehezkel, the one and twentieth to Jachin, the two and twentieth to Gamul, the three and twentieth to Delaiah, the four and twentieth to Maaziah. This was the ordering of them in their service, to come into the house of Jehovah according to the ordinance given unto them by Aaron their father, as Jehovah, the God of Israel, had commanded him.”
E.M. Zerr:
1Ch 24:7-19. This passage gives the order of turns for the service of the priesthood as described in the preceding paragraph. The reader will be interested in the mention of Abijah in 1Ch 24:10. In Luk 1:5 is the account of the priest who belonged to that course, and who became the father of John the Baptist. The spelling is a little different in the N. T. but is the same man. According to their manner means according to the plan that David had established for them.
