Exodus 6:14-25 Your Clans!

14These were the heads of their fathers’ houses:
The sons of Reuben, the firstborn of Israel, were Hanoch and Pallu, Hezron and Carmi. These were the clans of Reuben.
15The sons of Simeon were Jemuel, Jamin, Ohad, Jachin, Zohar, and Shaul, the son of a Canaanite woman. These were the clans of Simeon.
16These were the names of the sons of Levi according to their records: Gershon, Kohath, and Merari. Levi lived 137 years.
17The sons of Gershon were Libni and Shimei, by their clans.
18The sons of Kohath were Amram, Izhar, Hebron, and Uzziel. Kohath lived 133 years.
19The sons of Merari were Mahli and Mushi.
These were the clans of the Levites according to their records.
20And Amram married his father’s sister Jochebed, and she bore him Aaron and Moses. Amram lived 137 years.
21The sons of Izhar were Korah, Nepheg, and Zichri.
22The sons of Uzziel were Mishael, Elzaphan, and Sithri.
23And Aaron married Elisheba, the daughter of Amminadab and sister of Nahshon. She bore him Nadab and Abihu, Eleazar and Ithamar.
24The sons of Korah were Assir, Elkanah, and Abiasaph. These were the clans of the Korahites.
25Aaron’s son Eleazar married one of the daughters of Putiel, and she bore him Phinehas.
These were the heads of the Levite families by their clans.

I don’t know about you but when I read the names of clans (descendants), I immediately think, blah blah blah.......
BUT it is important to know the clans (descendants) of Aaron because his line became the priesthood in Numbers and it’s was important for his sons to know their lineage.

I know my clans (descendants) back to my fifth great grandfather. My fourth great grandfather fought in the American Revolution and if I wanted to I could join the “Sons of the American Revolution” because I have written proof of my clans (descendants).

Do you know your clans (descendants)? If not remember who your Father is, HE adopted you the moment you accepted His Son, Jesus Christ!
Ephesians 1:5 NLT God decided in advance to adopt us into his own family by bringing us to himself through Jesus Christ. This is what he wanted to do, and it gave him great pleasure.


Blessings, from your brother in Christ!
