 Kohathites
    the descendants of Kohath. They formed the first of the three
    divisions of the Levites (Ex. 6:16, 18; Num. 3:17). In the
    journeyings of the Israelites they had the charge of the most
    holy portion of the vessels of the tabernacle, including the ark
    (Num. 4). Their place in the marching and encampment was south
    of the tabernacle (Num. 3:29, 31). Their numbers at different
    times are specified (3:28; 4:36; 26:57, 62). Samuel was of this
    division.
