Koliath [1]

Koliath (kô'hath ), assembly. One of the three sons of Levi, from whom the three principal divisions of the Levites derived their origin and their name.  Genesis 46:11;  Exodus 6:16. In the journeyings of the tabernacle the sons of Kohath (Kohathites) had charge of the most holy portions of the vessels.  Numbers 4:1-49. Of the personal history of Kohath we know nothing, except that he came down to Egypt with Levi and Jacob,  Genesis 46:11; that his sister was Jochebed,  Exodus 6:20, and that he lived to the age of 133 years.  Exodus 6:18.
