Eleazar Article
STEPBible TIPNR
Eleazar is briefly mentioned in 1Sa 7:1 as the son of Abinadab. When the ark of God was brought to Abinadab's house in Kiriath-jearim, Eleazar was consecrated to guard it. The ark had been captured by the Philistines but was returned after it caused plagues among them. Eleazar's role was to ensure the proper care and protection of the sacred object.
Eleazar 2 Dictionary
Easton's Bible Dictionary (1897)
An inhabitant of Kirjath-jearim who was “sanctified” to take charge of the ark, although not allowed to touch it, while it remained in the house of his father Abinadab (1 Sam. 7:1, 2; comp. Num. 3:31; 4:15).
