SEV Biblia, Chapter 3:32

Y el principal de los príncipes de los levitas será Eleazar, hijo de Aarón el sacerdote, prepósito de los que tienen la guarda del santuario.

John Gill's Bible Commentary

Ver. 32. And Eleazar the son of Aaron the priest , etc.] Who was of the first of these families, the Amramites: [shall be] chief over the chief of the Levites ; over the three chiefs of the three houses of the Levites, who were Eliasaph the son of Lael, the chief of the Gershonites; and Elizaphan the son of Uzziel, the chief of the Kohathites; and Zuriel the son of Abihail, the chief of the Merarites: [and have] the oversight of them that keep the charge of the sanctuary ; the Kohathites, who had the care of the things belonging to the holy and most holy places; and these were particularly under the inspection of Eleazar, because they were things the priests had a, special concern in; (see Numbers 4:32).

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.
