 Ithamar
    palm isle, the fourth and youngest son of Aaron (1 Chr. 6:3). He
    was consecrated to the priesthood along with his brothers (Ex.
    6:23); and after the death of Nadab and Abihu, he and Eleazar
    alone discharged the functions of that office (Lev. 10:6, 12;
    Num. 3:4). He and his family occupied the position of common
    priest till the high priesthood passed into his family in the
    person of Eli (1 Kings 2:27), the reasons for which are not
    recorded. (See ZADOK.)
