(Barzillai had married a woman descended from Barzillai of Gilead, and he was called by that name.) 62 They searched for a record of them in the genealogies, but their names weren't found, so they were barred from serving as priests. 63 The governor[b] instructed them not to eat anything from the sanctuary sacrifices until a priest could ask the Lord about the issue by using the Urim and Thummim.[c]
