Cultural and Historical Background: The Levites were one of the twelve tribes of Israel, descended from Levi, the third son of Jacob and Leah. The tribe was chosen by God to perform sacred duties and assist the priests in the tabernacle and later in the temple. The Levitical laws, detailed in the Book of Leviticus, provided guidelines for worship, sacrifices, and maintaining holiness among the Israelites. The Levites did not receive a territorial inheritance like the other tribes but were given cities scattered throughout Israel.
