and from the sons of Uzziel
The phrase "and from the sons of Uzziel" refers to the descendants of Uzziel, who was a son of Kohath, one of the sons of Levi. The Levites were set apart for the service of the tabernacle and later the temple. Uzziel's lineage is significant because it highlights the continuity of the Levitical priesthood and their role in worship. The Hebrew root of "Uzziel" means "God is my strength," which underscores the divine empowerment and responsibility bestowed upon his descendants. Historically, the Levites were entrusted with the sacred duty of carrying the Ark of the Covenant, emphasizing their unique role in maintaining the spiritual life of Israel.

Amminadab the chief
"Amminadab the chief" identifies a leader among the sons of Uzziel. The name "Amminadab" means "my kinsman is noble" or "people of the prince," reflecting a heritage of leadership and nobility. As "the chief," Amminadab held a position of authority and responsibility, guiding his relatives in their sacred duties. This leadership role is crucial in the context of 1 Chronicles 15, where King David is organizing the Levites to transport the Ark of the Covenant to Jerusalem. The appointment of a chief among the Levites signifies the importance of order and reverence in worship, as well as the need for godly leadership in fulfilling divine mandates.

and 112 of his relatives
The mention of "112 of his relatives" indicates the large number of Levites involved in the procession. This number signifies the collective effort and unity required in the service of God. The Levites' participation in such significant numbers underscores the communal aspect of worship and the shared responsibility among God's people. Historically, the Levites were organized into divisions to ensure that the work of the temple was carried out efficiently and reverently. This organization reflects the biblical principle that every member of the community has a role to play in the worship and service of God, highlighting the importance of unity and cooperation in fulfilling God's purposes.

(10) Of the sons of Uzziel.--Uzziel was fourth son of Kohath (1Chronicles 6:2). Exodus 6:22 names three sons of Uzziel--Mishael, Elzaphan, and Zithri. The family of Elzaphan has already been represented (1Chronicles 15:8). The term "sons of Uzziel," therefore, in this verse represents the two other Uzzielite houses, which may have amalgamated in one. As Elzaphan is mentioned first, the elder line of Mishael may have become extinct. At any rate, 1Chronicles 23:20; 1Chronicles 24:24 imply the existence of only two Uzzielite stocks.
