Nueva Biblia Viva (NBV)

cuyas genealogías se perdieron. Eran los descendientes de Jabaías, Cos y Barzilay (que se casó con una de las hijas de Barzilay, el galaadita, y tomó el nombre de su familia). Como no pudieron comprobar que procedían de familias israelitas no se les permitió seguir en el sacerdocio. Además, el gobernador les prohibió comer de los alimentos solemnemente consagrados, hasta que un sacerdote consultara a Dios por medio del urim y el tumim, y se decidiera qué hacer con ellos.
