Barnes' Notes
The non-priestly Kohathites had been diminished by the destruction of Korah and his company Num. 16. On comparing Numbers 26:57 following with Numbers 3:27 ff, two of the families of the Kohathites seem to have disappeared altogether. Hence, it is not surprising that the rest of the Kohathites were sufficiently accommodated in ten cities.
