roland's comment on 2021-03-21 18:01:40:

why is there a different name used in various translations, in regard to Manasseh and Moses. the priests referenced here, who ministered to the tribe of Dan, are these priests from the tribe of Manasseh, thus not making them Levites, or are they the grandsons of Moses?
