Zechariah 12:13
Levi . . . Shimei—the highest and lowest of the priestly order (Numbers 3:18, Numbers 3:21). Their example and that of the royal order would of course influence the rest.
11 In that day there shall be a great amourning in Jerusalem, blike the mourning at Hadad Rimmon in the plain of Megiddo.
12 aAnd the land shall mourn, every family by itself: the family of the house of David by itself, and their wives by themselves; the family of the house of bNathan by itself, and their wives by themselves;
13 the family of the house of Levi by itself, and their wives by themselves; the family of Shimei by itself, and their wives by themselves;
14 all the families that remain, every family by itself, and their wives by themselves.
