<p> (Heb. Gershunni', גֵּרְשִׁנִּי Sept. Γεδσωνί, but often simply like ''Gershon, And'' so A.V. often "son of Gershon"), a designation, usually in the plur., of the descendants of GERSHON, one of the sons of [[Levi]] (&nbsp;Numbers 3:21; &nbsp;Numbers 4:24; &nbsp;Numbers 4:27; &nbsp;Joshua 21:33; &nbsp;1 Chronicles 23:7; &nbsp;2 Chronicles 29:12).
