Exodus 6:26

24 And ^athe sons of Korah were Assir, Elkanah, and Abiasaph. These are the families of the Korahites.

25 Eleazar, Aaron’s son, took for himself one of the daughters of Putiel as wife; and ^ashe bore him Phinehas. These are the heads of the fathers’ houses of the Levites according to their families.

26 These are the same Aaron and Moses to whom the Lord said, “Bring out the children of Israel from the land of Egypt according to their ^aarmies.”

27 These are the ones who spoke to Pharaoh king of Egypt, ^ato bring out the children of Israel from Egypt. These are the same Moses and Aaron.

Aaron Is Moses’s Spokesman

28 And it came to pass, on the day the Lord spoke to Moses in the land of Egypt,

29 that the Lord spoke to Moses, saying, “I am the Lord. ^aSpeak to Pharaoh king of Egypt all that I say to you.”

Exodus 6:26

According to their armies - tsibotham , their battalions - regularly arranged troops. As God had these particularly under his care and direction, he had the name of Yehovah tsebaoth , Lord of hosts or armies. "The plain and disinterested manner," says Dr. Dodd, "in which Moses speaks here of his relations, and the impartiality wherewith he inserts in the list of them such as were afterwards severely punished by the Lord, are striking proofs of his modesty and sincerity. He inserts the genealogy of Reuben and Simeon, because they were of the same mother with Levi; and though he says nothing of himself, yet he relates particularly what concerns Aaron, Exodus 6:23, who married into an honorable family, the sister of a prince of the tribe of Judah."
