And Kohath begat Amram.59 And the name of Amram's wife was Jochebed, the daughter of Levi, whom her mother bare to Levi in Egypt: and she bare unto Amram Aaron and Moses, and Miriam their sister.60 And unto Aaron was born Nadab, and Abihu, Eleazar, and Ithamar.61 And Nadab and Abihu died, when they offered strange fire before the LORD.62 And those that were numbered of them were twenty and three thousand, all males from a month old and upward: for they were not numbered among the children of Israel, because there was no inheritance given them among the children of Israel.
