Jerusalem, ~1000 BC. The lots keep falling. Bilgah gets 15th position, Immer the 16th. Each family now knows their sacred schedule...
The emotion here: patient dedication, chronicling each divine appointment
The original word
shem (שם) — name, reputation, memorial before God
Why it matters
Immer's family produced both faithful priests and corrupt ones like Pashhur who opposed Jeremiah
