Exodus 6:19
"And the sons of Merari; Mahali and Mushi: these are the families of Levi according to their generations."

Commentary

Gill's Exposition

And the sons of Merari, Mahali, and Mushi,.... From whence sprung the families of the Mahalites, and Mushites, Num 3:33 , these are the families of Levi, according to their

generations: the families that descended from him and his sons, according to the order of their birth.
