two hundred <03967> [two hundred.]
These two hundred and eighty-eight, being twenty-four courses of twelve each, were more skilful than the other Levites; and being placed under the twenty-four sons of the chief singers, they had the four thousand before mentioned divided among them, to officiate by courses, according to their instructions: ch. 23:5.
cast lots <01486 05307> [cast lots.]
responsibilities <04931 05980> [ward against ward.]

Even among the twenty-four leaders, some were more expert than others; some were teachers, and others were scholars; but every one was taken by the solemn casting of lots, without any regard to these distinctions. Thus all things were disposed for the preserving of order, and avoiding all disputes about precedence: there being no respect had, in this divine distribution, to birth, but the younger in course preceded the elder.

[Zeri.]
Nethaniah <05418> [Nethaniah.]
Jesharelah <03480> [Jesharelah.]
This variation rises from the mutation of ['Aleph,] {aleph,} and [Y“wd,] {yood;} the word being written in the parallel passage ['Asar'ˆlƒh <\\See definition 0841\\>,] {Asarelah,} and here, [Yesar'ˆlƒh <\\See definition 03480\\>,] Jesarelah.
[Asarelah.]
Azarel <05832> [Azareel.]
Probably this person was called by both names; or Uzziel may be a mistake for Azareel. In the Syriac and Arabic, the name is nearly the same in both places.
