Eliashib Article
STEPBible TIPNR
Eliashib is mentioned briefly in 1Ch 24:12 as the head of the eleventh priestly division organized by King David. David divided the priests into twenty-four divisions to ensure a systematic and orderly service in the temple. Each division was responsible for serving in the temple for a week at a time, twice a year. As the head of the eleventh division, Eliashib would have been responsible for overseeing his division's duties and ensuring that they fulfilled their responsibilities in the temple service.
