AARONITES*

Collective name for the priests who descended from Aaron through his sons Eleazar and Ithamar. The term is used twice in the KJB to refer to the 3,700 men who supported David against Saul (1 Chr 12:27) and of whom Zadok later became leader (1 Chr 27:17). Both “house of Aaron” (Pss 115:10, 12; 118:3; 135:19) and “Aaron” (1 Chr 27:17, rsv) are used to refer to the Aaronites.
