Ellicott's Commentary

Ellicott's Commentary for English Readers(10) And seek ye the priesthood also?--The Targums of Onkelos and Jonathan understand the reference to be to the high priesthood. As the other Levites who belonged to Korah's company sought the priesthood, so Korah may have aimed at the high priesthood.Parallel Commentaries ...HebrewHe has brought you near,וַיַּקְרֵב֙ (way·yaq·rêḇ)Conjunctive waw | Verb - Hifil - Consecutive imperfect - third person masculine singularStrong's 7126: To come near, approach[you] and allכָּל־ (kāl-)Noun - masculine singular constructStrong's 3605: The whole, all, any, everyyour fellowאַחֶ֥יךָ (’a·ḥe·ḵā)Noun - masculine plural construct | second person masculine singularStrong's 251: A brother, )Levites,בְנֵי־ (ḇə·nê-)Noun - masculine plural constructStrong's 1121: A sonbut you are seekingוּבִקַּשְׁתֶּ֖ם (ū·ḇiq·qaš·tem)Conjunctive waw | Verb - Piel - Conjunctive perfect - second person masculine pluralStrong's 1245: To search out, to strive afterthe priesthoodכְּהֻנָּֽה׃ (kə·hun·nāh)Noun - feminine singularStrong's 3550: Priesthoodas well.גַּם־ (gam-)ConjunctionStrong's 1571: Assemblage, also, even, yea, though, both, andJump to PreviousKorah Levi Priesthood Priests Seek Seeking Sought Trying
