Ellicott's Commentary
Ellicott's Commentary for English Readers(18) And to the genealogy.--After the parenthetic statements of 2Chronicles 31:16-17 the thread of the narrative, broken off at 2Chronicles 31:15, is taken up again at that point. The six Levites there named were in the priests' cities "to give (their portions) to their brethren," and further (2Chronicles 31:18) "for the registering in the case of all their little ones, their wives and their sons and their daughters, of the whole corporation" (of priests). The board of Levites had to keep a register of all who had claims on the provisions which they had to distribute. The general sense is the same if, as seems better, we trace the connection thus: "to give to their brethren, and to those who were registered among all their little ones" &c., explaining l?hithyah?sh b?kol-tapp?m as a relative sentence with the relative suppressed. (Comp. 2Chronicles 30:18-19, and 2Chronicles 31:19, ad fin.)Through all the congregation.--Or, to a whole assembly--scil., of wives and children of the priests and Levites. . . .
