1 Chronicles 9:20-22

Living Bible

²⁰ Phinehas, the son of Eleazar, was the first director of this division in ancient times. And the Lord was with him.

²¹ At that time Zechariah, the son of Meshelemiah, had been responsible for the protection of the entrance to the Tabernacle. ²² There were 212 doorkeepers in those days. They were chosen from their villages on the basis of their genealogies, and they were appointed by David and Samuel because of their reliability.
