Aaron, Eleazar, and
Phinehas appear in Biblical history as distinct personalities.
1 Chronicles 6:1-15 offers a (partial?) list of seven high priests between
Phinehas and Zadok, a contemporary of David and Solomon
Hophni - His brother
Phinehas, or Pinehai more properly, and which signifies a countenance or face, from Panah, to behold, was another such a character as himself
Micah - A man of Mount Ephraim, whose history reveals the sad state of private life in Israel, as well as the mixture of idolatry with the name of Jehovah, early in the times of the Judges,
Phinehas being still high priest
Jannes - Some will have it that they fled away with their father; others, that they were drowned in the Red Sea with the Egyptians; others, that they were killed by
Phinehas in the war against the Midianites

Phinehas, were 'sons of Belial:' they assisted their father, but interfered with the due offering of the sacrifices, and sinned greatly before the people
Eli - The two sons of Eli, Hophni and
Phinehas, were 'sons of Belial:' they assisted their father, but interfered with the due offering of the sacrifices, and sinned greatly before the people
Bethel - Here the ark of the covenant was kept for a long time under the care of
Phinehas, the grandson of Aaron (20:26-28)
Pergamos - As
Phinehas was rewarded for his zeal against idol compliances and fornication (to which Balaam seduced Israel), with "an everlasting priesthood," so the heavenly priesthood is the reward of those zealous against New Testament Balaamites
Zeal -
Phinehas is commended for having expressed much zeal against those wicked persons that violated the law of the Lord,
Numbers 25:11 ;
Numbers 25:13 ; and in
Psalms 69:9 , the psalmist says, "The zeal of thine house hath eaten me up;" my earnest desire to have all things duly ordered about thy worship, and my just displeasure and indignation at all abuses in it, have wasted my natural moisture and vital spirits
Abiathar - —The son of Ahimelech, the son of Ahitub, the son of
Phinehas, the son of Eli
Midianite - A thousand warriors from each tribe, under the leadership of
Phinehas, went forth against them
Eli - The transfer was foretold to Eli by the unnamed man of God first, and by the child Samuel next (
1 Samuel 2:3): a punishment from God, because though Eli reproved his wicked sons Hophni and
Phinehas in word he did not in act, put forth his authority as a judge to punish, coerce, and depose them, "because his sons made themselves vile, and he restrained them not
Balaam - When God sent a plague that killed thousands, Balaam must have thought his plan was working, but swift action from the Israelite priest
Phinehas saved Israel and brought death to Balaam (
Numbers 25:1-9;
Numbers 31:16;
Joshua 13:22)
Eli - Eli could not have treated Hophni or
Phinehas better than he treated Samuel, his immediate successor. Let me consider well how, conceivably, it could come about that Hophni and
Phinehas could be born and brought up at Shiloh and not know the Lord? Well, for one thing, their father was never at home. Hophni and
Phinehas were the only children in all Israel who saw the temple every day and paid no attention to it. How the ark of God was taken, and the two sons of Eli, Hophni and
Phinehas, were slain. ...
'The Psalm of Ichabod, the son of
Phinehas, the son of Eli, which he sang after that the Lord had repented Him of the evil, and had restored the priesthood to the house of Eli: I will confess my iniquity and the iniquity of my fathers. ' Thus sang Ichabod, the son of

Midian - So, by Jehovah's command, 1,000 warriors of every tribe, 12,000 in all, of Israel "vexed and smote" their five kings (Zur included, father of Cozbi the Midianite woman slain with Zimri by
Phinehas in the act of sin) and Balaam the giver of the wicked counsel which brought Jehovah's wrath on Israel for the sin (
Numbers 31:2-17)
Zadok - Abiathar bad charge of the ark in Jerusalem; so formerly Eleazar and Ithamar, Hophni and
Phinehas, were joint chief priests
Names - persons often gave their children names of significance: thus the wife of
Phinehas, when she heard that the ark of God was taken, and that her husband and her father-in-law were dead, called her child Ichabod, 'where is the glory?' for the glory was departed from Israel, the ark being taken
Samaritans - In the first of these answers, written in the name of the assembly of Israel, in Egypt, they declare that they celebrate the passover every year, on the fourteenth day of the first month, on Mount Gerizim, and that he who then did the office of high priest was called Eleazar, a descendant of
Phinehas, son of Aaron. At the time when they wrote to Scaliger, they reckoned one hundred and twenty-two high priests; affirmed that the Jews had no high priests of the race of
Phinehas; and that the Jews belied them in calling them Cutheans; for that they are descended from the tribe of Joseph by Ephraim
Hannah - There were more sons and daughters of Belial being born and brought up in the house of Israel in these days, than Hophni and
Phinehas. If he had said that to Hophni and
Phinehas twenty years before, and had, at the same time, put away his own, Eli would have had another grandson than Ichabod to bear and to transmit his name. I do not wonder that Hophni and
Phinehas became prodigals. What else could they become with such a father? When the blind lead the blind, what can you look for? That temple post, and that doited old priest sitting idle in the sun, and Hannah drunk with sorrow, and the way that Eli looks at her, and the things he says to her-Rock of Ages, let me hide myself in Thee! Only to Thy cross I cling-as I see Eli, and myself in Eli, and my children in Hophni and in
Phinehas and in Ichabod. Who would not have been sad who had eyes to see what went on in Elkanah's house at Shiloh? No man but a blind and a hopeless fool would have been other than sad over houses like the house of Elkanah and Peninnah, and Eli and Hophni and
Phinehas
Jannes And Jambres - They were sons of Balaam, and accompanied him on his journey to Balak; they perished in the Red Sea; they were among the ‘mixed multitude’; they were killed in the matter of the golden calf; they flew up into the air to escape the sword of
Phinehas, but were brought down by the power of the Ineffable Name and slain
Ashdod - Perhaps the most infamous contact between Ashdod and Israel is reported in 1 Samuel 4-6 when the Philistines defeated the army of Israel in battle, killed the two sons of Eli, Hophni and
Phinehas, and captured the ark of the covenant
Shiloh (2) - The sin of Hophni and
Phinehas caused the loss of the ark and God's forsaking of His tabernacle at Shiloh (called in spiritual sense "the house of God," though not of stone:
Judges 18:31;
2 Samuel 7:6;
1 Kings 3:2), so that this became a warning beacon of God's wrath against those who sin in the face of high spiritual privileges (
Jeremiah 7:12;
Psalms 78:60-61)
Petrus, Bishop of Sebaste - 168), entreating him to strike with the zeal of a
Phinehas both the heretical books with the same spiritual sword, which he knew so well how to wield
Ed - It was not in sight of
Phinehas when addressing the leaders of the two and a half tribes on mount Gilead
Samaritans - They have a copy of the Pentateuch, professedly made by Abishua the son of
Phinehas, 1400 years before Christ

Phinehas, Joshua, Caleb, the Judges, Samuel, Nathan, David, Solomon, Elijah, Elisha, Hezekiah, Isaiah, Josiah, Jeremiah, Ezekiel, Job, the Twelve, Zerubbabel, Joshua the priest, Nehemiah
Come Up, Ascend - Even when ‛âlâh is used by itself, it can mean “to go to war”; the Lord told
Phinehas, “Go up; for tomorrow I will deliver them into thine hand” (
Joshua - The last five verses, giving an account of the death of Joshua, were added by one of his successors; probably by Eleazar,
Phinehas, or Samuel
Baal (1) - A plague from Jehovah destroyed 24,000 Israelites in consequence, and was only stopped by the zeal of
Phinehas
Dives - ), however, has thought that the word may be a corruption of Φινεές (Finaeus in pseudo-Cyprian, de Pascha Computus, circa (about) 17), and ‘that since in
Numbers 25:7 Phinehas is said to be the son of Eleazar, an attempt has been made to suggest that the poor man … was the rich man’s own father
Jealousy (2) - Jealousy, no doubt, is apt to be a turbid virtue; the OT examples of it—Phinehas, Elijah, and Jehn—all illustrate this; and even in Christian history jealousy for Jesus as sole Lord and Saviour has often been confounded with zeal for a definition of one’s own making, or for the predominance of one’s own ecclesiastical or political faction
Joshua, Book of - The tribes on the west feared that the altar had been built in separation from the worship of Jehovah, and sent princes with
Phinehas the priest to protest against it, but on hearing the explanation given, they were satisfied that the tribes on the east were faithful in heart
Genealogy - Thus, the genealogy of
Ruth 4:18-22 makes but four intervening links between Nahshon at the Exodus (
Numbers 1:7) and David, namely, Salmon, Boaz, Obed, Jesse; whereas the genealogy of Levi has double that number in the same period, seven between
Phinehas and Zadok, and more in Gershon's line (1 Chronicles 6)
Covenant - Amongst other covenants of minor importance are that with
Phinehas establishing an everlasting priesthood in his line (
Numbers 25:12 f
Honor -
Phinehas’ wife named their son Ichabod, “saying, The glory is departed from Israel: because the ark of God was taken, and because of her father-inlaw and her husband” (they, the high priests, had died;
Redeem - 25:13,
Phinehas is said to have “made an atonement for the children of Israel” by spearing a couple during orgiastic worship of Baal
High Priest -
Phinehas, son of Eleazar, is the last of Eleazar's line before Eli (
Judges 20:28). Abishua, was the last high priest of
Phinehas' line before Zadok
Samuel - Hophni and
Phinehas never saw God. Such blessedness is there in a good mother; in an early plantation in the house of God; and in a pure heart; for, then, with Hophni and
Phinehas for Israel's high priests, and with Samuel for her prophet from Dan to Beersheba,-'I should soon have subdued their enemies, and turned My hand against their adversaries. Hophni and
Phinehas's lives were the seals of it to them
Atonement - ), of the half-shekel of ransom-money (
Exodus 30:15-16 ), of the intercession of Moses (
Exodus 32:30 ), of the zeal of
Phinehas (
Numbers 25:13 ), etc. ), with sacrificial atonements, with signal vindications of the Divine righteousness (Phinehas)
Balaam - " But then follows (Numbers 25) Israel's whoredom, not only with Moabite women but also with Midianite women, of whom Cozbi, daughter of Zur (slain by

Phinehas for his zeal in killing the Israelite and the Midianitess
Numbers, Book of - The zeal of
Phinehas, who in a signal case executed judgement, is commended of God

Phinehas), and Ithamar

Phinehas, and Ichabod were all household words, as we say, in every household in Israel
