SEV Biblia, Chapter 3:20

Y los hijos de Merari, por sus familias: Mahli, y Musi. Estas son las familias de Leví, por las casas de sus padres.

John Gill's Bible Commentary

Ver. 20. And the sons, of Merari, by their families , etc.] The third son of Levi; Mahli and Mushi ; the same as in ( Exodus 6:19); from whom were denominated the families of the Mahlites and Mushites, who, as the preceding families, were numbered at this time: these [are] the families of the Levites, according to the house of their fathers ; in all eight families.

Matthew Henry Commentary

Verses 14-39 - The Levites were in three classes, according to the sons of Levi Gershon, Kohath, and Merari; and these were subdivided into families The posterity of Moses were not at all honoured or privileged, but stood upon the level with other Levites; thus it was plain, that Mose did not seek the advancement of his own family, or to secure an honours to it. The tribe of Levi was by much the least of all the tribes. God's chosen are but a little flock in comparison with the world.
