However, related Greek terms may include those referring to Levites or priestly duties, such as Λευίτης (Leuites) for "Levite" (Strong's Greek Number 3019). Usage: The term "Kohathite" refers to the descendants of Kohath, one of the sons of Levi. The Kohathites were one of the Levitical families responsible for specific duties related to the tabernacle and later the temple. Context: The Kohathites were a significant Levitical family in ancient Israel, descending from Kohath, the second son of Levi. As part of the tribe of Levi, the Kohathites held a special role in the religious and ceremonial life of Israel. According to the biblical narrative, the Kohathites were entrusted with the care of the most sacred objects of the tabernacle, including the Ark of the Covenant, the table of showbread, the lampstand, the altars, and the sacred utensils (Numbers 3:31; 4:4-15). Their duties required them to transport these holy items whenever the Israelites moved their camp during their wilderness journey.
