The verse highlights the distribution of towns to the descendants of Aaron, who belonged to the Kohathite clans. These towns, Gibeon, Geba, Alemeth, and Anathoth, were allocated from the tribe of Benjamin. The Kohathites were one of the families within the tribe of Levi, set apart for specific religious duties, including the care of the sanctuary and temple services. Unlike other tribes, the Levites did not receive a large territorial inheritance but were given specific towns and pasturelands across various tribes. This arrangement ensured that the Levites, who were responsible for the spiritual well-being of the Israelites, had the necessary resources to live and carry out their duties. The allocation of these towns underscores the communal responsibility to support those dedicated to spiritual service, reflecting a broader principle of providing for those who serve in religious capacities. This system allowed the Levites to focus on their sacred responsibilities without the burden of agricultural labor, ensuring the continuity of worship and religious instruction among the people.
And from the tribe of Benjamin they gave them Gibeon, Geba, Alemeth and Anathoth, together with their pasturelands. These towns were distributed to the descendants of Aaron, who were of the Kohathite clans.
