And the sons of Izhar, Korah, and Nepheg, and Zichri. These seem to be mentioned for the sake of Korah, concerning whom is a remarkable history in the following book; for the other two are nowhere else spoken of.

Verses 21-27:
This list of Levi’s descendants includes the names of those who figure prominently in Israel’s wilderness experiences. Some are noted for their faithfulness, others for their disobedience and the
consequences. These will be studied in subsequent chapters. There were many other descendants whose names are not recorded.
The genealogy concludes with the notation that the Moses and Aaron here mentioned as Levi’s direct descendants, are the very ones who went before Pharaoh with God’s message, to bring Israel out of Egypt.
