Pulpit Commentary

Pulpit CommentaryVerse 7. - Phinehas, the son of Eleazar. See on Exodus 6:25. He seems to have been the only son of Eleazar, and his natural successor in the office of high priest.

Ellicott's Commentary

Ellicott's Commentary for English Readers(7) And when Phinehas, the son of Eleazar, the son of Aaron the priest . . . --In accordance with this punctuation, the designation the priest (which generally denotes the high priest) refers to Aaron, not to Phinehas. Eleazar was the high priest at this time (Numbers 20:26); and consequently--although as a general rule any designation which follows the words "the son of such an one" refers to the former, not to the latter noun--it appears most probable that the designation the priest has reference here to Aaron, not to Phinehas, who, although a priest, was not the high priest at this time. He was invested, however, with civil as well as ecclesiastical authority. (See 1Chronicles 9:20, where he is described as a ruler--Hebrew, nagid.)
