These are my thoughts, please share yours.
Again it was decided by lots, this being the way they saw how God chose, they did this form of choosing for some reason rather then to ask the prophet of that time that the Lord provided. The Levites all served the Lord; they lived not by caring for their land but by living for the Lord and serving the Lord. Every one of them had a purpose; even small children of the Levites could help and were trained up in the service of the Lord. This is good but teaching them who God truly is and helping them to fellowship with Him is far more important then teaching them to serve. These are the list of men who served the Lord, the list of Levites and the families.
