Notes

The list of Levitical cities comes from Joshua 21. It follows a geographical order, with families grouped by specific areas. This list shows Israel's unity and completeness. It presents the Levites as settled in the land just like the other tribes.

This section highlights the importance of the priestly tribe of Levi due to its central position in the genealogical lists.
